They might, I cannot give you a yes or no because there is no written rules on the subject. You need to discuss your plans with your lawyer.

That would be entirely up to the CA court and prosecutor at the time. That is not your real problem. You are suggesting you will default on the case, violate probation, and end up with an arrest warrant. If so, that will be valid forever until cleared in court, and you will be subject to arrest on no bail every time you come in contact with law enforcement anywhere in the country, or with border security. Bad idea. You also will have your license suspended [also honored in every state] and not be able to get car insurance until cleared.
