What is a bench warrant?
Usually, a Bench Warrant is issued by the judge in the proceeding that you did not show up for. These can be for any court proceeding that you should have been in attendance. More generally speaking, a judge can issue a bench warrant for anybody, and for any reason, although their proceedings are subject to reveiw by higher courts and higher judges. The "to hold" is, I don't think the right terminology. because if you are picked-up on a bench warrant, you will see the judge before you get out.
