A non US citizen living in the Caribbean who visited Florida on vacation was arrested for shoplifting was charged with Grand Theft because store security claimed items was over $300.00. Was fingerprinted and fortunately was granted bond and was released. Did not receive notice for court date in the mail until both notices were expired. Nine years past and outstanding warrant issued, flagged in homeland security, if travel to USA will be arrested. How can they resolve this matter if they want and what will be repercussions?

How can they resolve this matter [?]

Retain an attorney in Florida to negotiate a plea bargain. Restitution (paying back the value of what they took &/or the amount paid by the bail bond company) will probably be required.

I find it difficult to believe the part about not receiving notice of the hearing. They would have been notified of this date before they were released on bail, or the bail bondsman would have made sure they didn't leave until arraigned. At any rate, in all those nine years they never thought to ask about it?
