It will be a state warrant and they will probably not extradite for a violation of probation on a misdemeanor. I would advise you to surrender with a lawyer and clear it up before you get arrested on the warrant at a border, airport, or traffic stop in that state.

You could call the court that the matter is in. They would tell you. Most warrants are put on the countrywide system as I understand it.

Go to criminal court. Go to clerk's office. Give them your name and date of birth. They will check to see if you have a warrant in the county. To check nationwide (not usually necessary if you check in the county where your case was) you need to use one of the online services.

Unless the Feds are after you for a federal crime, it is state.

You can be certain that a warrant has issued for violation of probation. You need to hire an attorney to take care of this problem. It is far better to arrange to surrender than to wait until you are arrested on the warrant.

I would retain an attorney to look into it and to get out in front of the problem should there be a warrant.

You probably have an active warrant out. It is a pity that you have ignored this for so many years, it will come back to haunt you. Call the warrants department of your county sheriff to find out.
