I just found out that I missed a court date for a DUI fine. I have a warrant for my arrest now. It was my mistake I thought my court date was January * not and it was actually December *, I don't have any money and my bail is already set at the original fine cost of $*. I will lose my job if I go to jail. How can I resolve this without going to jail?
