Re: i missed a court date

Its so hard to try and answer these questions with partial information. You said you missed two dates, but you only mentioned one charge. You didn't say how long ago the court date(s) were, which can make a difference. Also, I have no idea what "LEC" is and am not comfortable tryig to guess. You should contact an attorney to be on the safe side. There is a possibility that they have issued a bench warrant for your arrest. But I don't have enough information to tell you. If you would like to give me some specific information on everything and email it to me I might be able to answer your question. Otherwise, I suggest you call an attorney.
