Pay whatever is due and get a receipt. Move to recall the warrant and attach a copy of the receipt to the motion. Anyone may pay and get the receipt for you, but only you or an attorney on your behalf may file the motion.

If you asked me to handle this case, I would have you pay the amount owed, and I would contact the Assistant State's Attorney, and get them to agree to recall the warrant and, hopefully, close the case, and then I would file a motion with the judge to accomplish these things.
