Live in VA and have warrant in AZ for failure to appear, from 2008, do I need to go there or can a lawyer appear on my behalf?
I live in Virginia since 2007, I have been on probation for 5 yrs that ended 3 yrs ago. I just found out I have an active warrant in Arizona for failure to appear for a phone threat. its a class 1 misdemeanor. it was issued in 2008. I never been told about it threw mail or phone nor while I was on probation. I found out about it threw a background check for employment.. I have been pulled over for traffic stops but it never popped up. I'm told that since its a misdemeanor that Arizona doesn't extradite and that it will only pop up during employment background checks. I'm in process of opening a business and would like to get it resolved. however I cant leave Virginia and go all the way to AZ. is it possible to hire an attorney in AZ to appear on my behalf.
