Have you been charged? If so, you need a lawyer to represent you. The DA can drop charges (or not file them so you might be better off to get a lawyer regardless of whether or not you have been charged.) Keep up whatever bargain you made about making restitution and finishing paying it off - the sooner the better usually (but follow the lawyer's advice first.) You might also want to contact a bondsman to keep a lookout for a warrant so you can make a non arrest bond.
