If you have a misdemeanor offense the judge will issue a warrant for your arrest. The amount of bond will be determined by the judge. To have this warrant lifted you will have to come into the court to be arraigned. You need to be prepared to post a cash bond, otherwise, you will be taken into custody.

The arresting agency is responsible for bringing defendants to the court to be arraigned. The court has no prior knowledge of when a defendant will be transported for arraignment. If you would like to be present for the arraignment, you are free to wait in the lobby until the defendant is brought to the court. If you have further questions, please contact the arresting police department.

Bond is not returned until after sentencing, dismissal of charges, or probation violation hearing is held.

As long as you have already been fingerprinted for the current incident, you may disregard this order. The exception to this would be if you are contacted by an officer to return to be re-printed.

If you have not yet been fingerprinted, follow the instructions on the order.

You will be required to appear for a Show Cause Hearing on a date prior to your sentencing, where you must explain to the Judge why you missed the appointment. The Judge will decide the appropriate course of action and a $50 rescheduling fee may be added to your file.
