2 warrants in different county
My friend has 2 warrants in different counties. The first warrant was for failure to appear, but he already served time in LA county. The second warrant was for not completing his cal trans and is sentenced for 30 days in orange county, ca. where will he be serving time and how long? how does he turn himself in?
Re: 2 warrants in different county
Best option would be to appear in court with counsel present. The longer he waits the more he risks that the penalties be increased. It is much much better to surrender voluntarily to court rather than waiting to be picked up by the police and brought in involuntarily. Assistance of good competent counsel could be critical in reducing potential sentence.
If your friend cannot afford private counsel he should contact the public defender's office as they should be able to assist him.
Feel free to contact me for further consultation if you are considering retaining private counsel.
