i live in a different state frim where my court is

Burbank? Contact the court where your case is pending and ask if they have the option for remote hearings by zoom. If they do not, you will have to travel to court, despite the expenses. If you do not appear, a warrant will be issued for your arrest for non-appearance. If it is a felony offense, the warrant will be enforced nationwide; you can be arrested for a felony warrant in any state and extradited back to Texas. If it is a misdemeanor warrant, they will not arrest you on it in California, but, it will remain in Texas indefinitely, so if you ever came back to Texas you could be arrested on the warrant.  You also could hire a lawyer in Grand Prairie, TX that could go to court for you; this would not excuse your non-appearance if in person appearance is required in the court, but, they might be able to get you a continuance if you are not able to obtain one when you call the Court. Any Dallas area attorney can help you.  Good luck.
