No. You're a scum bag druggie who shouldnt' be allowed around a baby.
Perhaps after you are rehabilitated, you'll deserve to see your baby.

Yes it is called delayed reporting to jail. In fact most minor offenses are done this way as long as you can post a bond. The reason is they have to have room for you in the jail.
Talk to the DA that is prosecuting the case, if they agree it will be even easier. This may be considered an undue hardship on you and you family.
Just remember this the next time you think about ignoring the law.

I think it not only depends on the state, but also the judge. I would call an attorney, lots advertise free consultation in the yellow pages, and ask one of them their opinion and how to go about that. Did you not have an attorney when you originally went to court? If so, I would call them. Good luck

Well I can tell you right now the judge will probably say no. If you are the one having the child they will definetly say no because they feel you are better off in jail because you may harm the child. You can request it but it probably won't happen. Good luck!

Yes you can but it would have to be supervised with regular drug tests and child care visits.
Your attorney can make that motion when you trun yourself in.
It will be competely up to the judge.

it will not hurt to ask, you have a 50-50 chance the judge will work with you...you might need a letter from the doctor to prove you are telling the truth, i hope it works for you, and good luck

Yes, you can ask for a continuance but there is no guarantee that you will get it. Make sure you have all your ducks in a row and can explain to them why, if they give you a chance to.

Sure you can ask. But be prepared for the judge to tell you no.

I really don't think so especially if you have a warrant

if you are sincere enough and responsible to notify the judge they will accomodate you
