My question involves criminal law for the state of NY.
I live outside of NY state and have been contacted by a NYC detective and asked to call him to arrange a return to NYC to be arrested and provided a DAT.
I had a physical altercation with a girlfriend. As I was trying to defend myself her arm was bruised. She reported the assault. Potentially, as a Domestic Violence issue.
Questions:
[1]If I don't return to NYC is there a chance that a warrant will be issued on a Misdemeanor A, Third Degree Assault?
[2]Is an extradition warrant even a possibility?
[3]I have been given opposing positions on the issue by lawyers. 1) surrender with a lawyer and go through the process. 2) do nothing and either no warrant will be issued or if a warrant is issued I won't be returning to NYC anyway.
[4]I travel internationally for work, would a NY state warrant pose a problem entering or leaving the country?
