A bench warrant is a bench warrant whether it is issued by a criminal court judge or a civil court judge.
A bench warrant is issued by the Court. A private citizen or his attorney isn't the originating agent, the Court (the judge) is. The Court has sole discretion in this, and cannot be compelled to issue a bench warrant.
The person with the bench warrant will have to appear before the court. The person who lied may be charged with perjury.

A bench warrant in ANY state is a warrant issued directly by the court, on its own authority, to take the named individual into custody.
When you are picked up and arrested you'll certainly be held in jail until you are presented to the court to face your charge. After that it will depend on the outcome of your court action.
When you have served your period of incarceration in the first county, before they release you they should check to see if there are any other "criminal holds" on you. When they find the bench warrant they will hold you for the other county to come get you and return you to the court that issued the bench warrant.
A "bench warrant" is a warrant issued by a judge on his sole authority. Only the judge who issued the warrant can vacate the warrant. If he had to issue one to get you to court to testify, you probably won't be released until after your necessity in the court action is ended.
A bench warrant can be issued for a person with a judgment if they fail to comply with the terms of the judgment, such as failing to pay fines or appear in court as required. The bench warrant allows law enforcement to arrest the person and bring them before the court to address the violation.
In New Jersey, a bench warrant is issued when someone fails to appear in court as required. The warrant authorizes law enforcement to arrest the person and bring them before the court. Once arrested, the individual may be held in custody until their court appearance or until they post bail.
If a bench warrant is issued for you, you will be arrested immediately upon being located by the sheriff or police. If it is a 'normal' bench warrant you will be transported to jail and held for court the next day. If it is a "forthwith" order, you will immediately be transported directly to court and presented to the judge.
