How do I clear up an arrest warrant?

The only way to clear an arrest warrant is to appear in front of the court that issued the warrant. If the warrant is active and in the system, you can be arrested in any state in the United States, and also when entering the country at passport control. The best way to approach this problem is to immediately clear it up. If you voluntarily go into a court, you may be able to prevent later jail time if you’re arrested on the warrant.
