Legal Question


had a court date in 2007 and I sent in the obituary for the funeral i had to attend and i was told that I would be excused. 2 weeks later i found out that i had a warrant for missing court. I am going in the morning to pay the $1000 bail for the warrant then i will get a court date for the original charge of theft . I had a public defender back in 07 and i was told if i paid the $652 it would all be ok... will that still happen or because i missed court and didnt pay the $652 back then now im in bigger trouble?

Additional Details

FYI I have no criminal record and I have never been in trouble before and for the theft charge I went to the first two court dates before the missed one... will that at least be looked at? that im not an ongoing problem? my charge was reviewed by the superior court and my case will stay in municipal court
