Re: filing a motion

You or preferably your attorney needs to file a motion to recall the warrant with the clerk. You need to get a date for hearing from the judges assistant and give notice to the State Atty. When you appear for hearing the judge can grant your motion or arrest you on the warrant. You really should have a lawyer do this.
