Fix it? You will have to go to court, with or without an attorney, and seek to get the warrant withdrawn, negotiate a plea on the 'failure to appear; charges, and have the original charges and case set for a hearing to then either go to trial or negotiate a plea.

With a green card, you should not face deportation, like an 'illegal' would. If serious about hiring good counsel to help and defend you in SoCal courts, contact me at 7149607584.
