In the state of Florida what is the meaning of Court Summons? On Felony Charges NO warrant has been issued!!?

Question

The Charges are:
1. Uttering forged Check
2. Petit theft $100.00 or more but less than $300.00

I thought that a warrant would of went out and when arrested they could bond out and then start court proceedings. Help me understand what this Procedure is with out a warrant being issued.

Answer 1

You don't have to be arrested to be tried, just notified of the charges against you. You have been summoned to court to answer the charges

Answer 2

It means you have to appear in court. They don't HAVE to have a warrant. A warrant just gives them a right to search and/or seize something from you. (or arrest you)
