What do you do if you have a city warrant for failure to appear and the reason for your failure to appear is due to being incarcerated in county jail in a different city at the time of your court date? How can this be addressed without going to jail?

Write a letter to the court that you were supposed to be at. U can call the clerk and get the name of the judge that handled ur case (traffic, misdemeanor possession, theft, etc.. and u can write that judge and his office will check and reset ur court date or maybe u can get time served if u were already arraigned in for the charge. If it was a traffic thing or a fine u needed to pay they will want the money! So have the cash when u do go to court!
