I got caught tagging so I am being charged with vandilism and resisting arrest and they issued a court date for me but I left the state. What could I be charged with this act I've done?

Hello m:

If you go back they'll just charge with the same stuff - maybe bail jumping, failure to appear...

The original charges will still stand, but they will most likely add bail jumping if you do not attend the next court date. I would go back to the state and attend court. If you don't, they will put out a warrant for you. If you get pulled over or have police contact in which ever state you are in now, they will arrest you and hold you until you get picked up by the state issuing the warrant (where the vandalism charges are)

Then when they extradite you (take you back to the original state) depending on where it is, you will have to ride on a crappy, smelly bus handcuffed to someone else for a long (possibly says long) ride. However, each state has it's own rules/laws for extradition, and they might not even bother to do anything, since the charges aren't felonies and it might be too much of a hassle.
