Survey says: Yes, they want you!

The warrant will remain in place until you appear in court to answer to it. Or, upon your death, whichever comes first.

There are also a number of other drawbacks that go along with having an active warrant out for your arrest.

You will not be able to qualify for social services or student loans. It can affect your drivers license status and create problems with obtaining insurance and it will of course, show up on any background checks you may have to pass for employment.

A felony warrant is to be taken seriously and being named on a city, county or state's most wanted list is a good sign that you will be facing some very serious charges.

You need an attorney and I imagine, a considerable sum of money for a bail bond.
I would be sure to have all my affairs in order before turning myself in.
