More details to this question:
I was told that being I made payments they will try and clear it. What should I do? What is the mandatory time to be incarcerated to see a judge on a bench warrant probation violation?

Talk to your PO about this, they can get the warrant cleared.

In some instances the PO can have the warrant cleared. From what you are saying, it sounds like your issue is only financial. If so, ,by bringing the payments current, the PO may be able to get the warrant recalled. If the matter has already been scheduled for a hearing, the judge may still want to see you. Ultimately, it is up to the judge. The amount of time you would be required to serve, if any, is also up to the judge.

Once a warrant is issued, only the judge can recall it. There is no mandatory time of incarceration, it is up to the judge.
