More details to this question:
My summons was sent to my old address and now I have a warrant for an FTA! I was told to write the judge and explain and try and get a new court date but I'm afraid I'm going to show up and be arrested and my bond is $5000. That seems ridiculous as I've seen people with felonies have lower bonds than that. What is this about and can I really fix it by writing the judge?

Whether you can fix this by merely writing to the judge is an odd question, and it depends upon the judge, but I seriously doubt that it can be fixed by doing that. What you need to do is hire a private criminal defense attorney.
