A failure to appear warrant will be issued and your license will probably be suspended.
The courts in your state are obviously attempting to impress upon you the severity of what you have done, and the importance of the legal system in making the roads safer for everyone. Your failure to appear as directed was evidence to them that you do not consider it important, at least that's the way they must feel. At this point it's probably best for you to talk to the judge or your local drivers license people to see what you can do. What you are describing is dependant upon state laws and you'll need to find out from someone who is knowledgable about the laws in your state. Good luck and when/if you get your license back, drive safely.

Yes, they can suspend the license. Failure to notify would have to be proven to get it reinstated, or the reason for the summons resolved.
At trial, you can offer as a defense the issuance of the new license three months after the suspension. That may serve to show your belief that your license was valid at the time of the first suspended license violation. The second suspended license charge will be tougher to fight, as you had to know from the first ticket that your license was suspended.

A failure to appear stays active until you appear and resolve the underlying charge. Failing to appear is not a new charge, and therefore is not adjudicated or added to a criminal record. Instead, when you fail to appear, a bench warrant is issued, the current charge is put on hold, and in some cases, your bond is forfeited or your driver's license is suspended.

As far as I know, a failure to appear will not prevent you from obtaining a driver's license in any state..it should just get you a warrant in the county/state that you earned a failure to appear. It would be wise in fact to first get your license in another state and then deal with the court proceedings (be it for a dui, etc) in the state of perpitraion After you obtain your license in the next state, where you will typically also be surrendering your license in that other state. Your Failure To Appear will still have earned you your warrant though-so don't sleep on it! Added: (In the State of Ohio) If you fail to appear at a traffic court hearing, they will likely just continue to deal with your case as if you showed up and agreed to everything they have done in your absence (you are guilty/fines levied/sentencing given out/etc.). The State wins the case against you by your 'Default' of not showing up. They will also 'Administratively' suspend your driver's license until you appear at the court to deal with the charges/case and your license will be suspended until you pay a $25 reinstatement fee to the DMV. This (along withe the warrant for failure to appear) could cause you to not be able to get another license in CA, until you have taken care of the charges in your case and paid the fee to DMV. You must also be living in CA, or whatever State you try to get a different license in (must be a resident of the State) in order to get a driver's license in any other State, so you can't get your license suspended in one State and just go to another to get a different license.
If you owe any fees from the past suspension in the mid 1990's then you would have to pay the fees for that.
