I have DUI case, I was pulled over on campus in December of 2010. I also got in trouble for a lwed and lascivious behavior in May 2012.
I left US in July 2012 and didn’t go to court for the lewd and lascivious behavior as I didn’t receive a court date while I was in the US.
For The DUI , I initially went on diversion and failed it and by the time they called me to court again I had already left the US.
The reason I am writing today is that I have 2 warrant. A bench warrant for the DUI charge and an arrest warrant for the lwed behavior charge. Since I was an international student and not a US citizen once I completed my studies I had to leave the country and I couldn't follow up on the court dates. At the moment I am living and working in Saudi Arabia.
i want to get rid of the warrants and solve these cases but after getting in touch with a few lawyers in Kansas(the cases are for Sedgwick county court) it seems like even my warrants can’t be quashed without appearing in court. I have emailed the US embassy in Riyadh to grant me a visa to go to the states to resolve these matters.they have asked me to apply for a visa and set up an interview with them, I am hoping they will grant me a visa.
my question is that if I receive the visa to travel to the US will the CBP will let me enter the US. What will be the best port of entry and how long should I plan to stay to clear out these cases? Since I would need to apply for a leave with my current employers.
The DUI I received was my first ever offense and the lewd and lascivious behavior was my second offense , I have not been involved with any other trouble. Both the cases are marked as misdemeanor.
I was naive and thought that this won’t be a an issue after I left the US but I was recently denied a job after these pending cases showed up on my back ground check.
i really want to get this cases taken care of. Any help would be appreciated.
