Not enough details here to answer. Generally, if a warrant is issued in one state, it will show on a national data base in every state. If you draw the attention of police in OH, traffic stop, random ID check, they will run your info. and may detain you in jail. The state who issued the warrant has so many days to come and get you. If they don?t, OH will let you go. However, you may sit in jail longer than you want.

I am certainly not going to say it is acceptable to intentionally violate the order of the Court. You need top flight legal advice before you move. See a lawyer.
