If you have a case pending you need to go to court so you do not get a warrant.

What you should do depends upon what you want to do. Adjudication must be withheld in order to get the records sealed.

That means you're not convicted yet, simply charged. But you WILL be convicted soon if you don't get help. Remember you have only 10 days to save your license. Contact a DUI specialist ASAP.

It sounds like there may be an outstanding charge. You may want to aid the assistance of an attorney to check on it for you.

The answer to your question largely depends on what it is that you want to do, and whether you have actually been convicted of a DUI yet. Additionally, we'd need to know where you pulled your record from in order to determine whether it accurately reflects any convictions you may have. If your DUI charge was recently brought but has not yet been handled by the court via a plea hearing or trial, then your record is not going to show a DUI conviction. A conviction will only show up on your record once you've appeared in court and have been found guilty of a DUI. If a DUI conviction was only recently entered, then it may be that the court has not yet processed the necessary paperwork to finalize this conviction on your record. Alternatively, it could be that the database you used to pull your record has not yet been updated so as to reflect a recent DUI conviction. There are a multitude of possibilities as to why a conviction is not currently on your record, so we would need more facts in order to accurately answer your question.
