If you have a bench warrant in another state is it possible to take care of it without going back to that state?

You can certainly do that. Although if the other state wishes to extradite you, you might spend several unnecessary days, or weeks, locked up in your home state awaiting both states to process your extradition. SUGGESTION: Call the court which issued the bench warrant and try to reach some understanding as to what it is for and what the possible consequences of your voluntarily turning yourself in might be. NOTE: If the case is a traffic case, it is quite likely that the other state has already suspended or revoked your driving privileges which WILL affect your license in your home state too.
