What exactly will happen if a person is issued a bench warrant?

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.
