Warrant For Suspended License. Please Help!

Card image cap

Hello everyone! I hope ya are doing better than I am. I am a Rowan student (23M) who recently started living in South Jersey. Long story short, I am from NY and my mother moved to Florida in 2021. I came with her briefly before going to college and got my license there during the time. I was pulled over the other day and apparently my license is suspended in Florida but since my mother moved out of the address that is stated on my license, I have not gotten any updates or notices regarding my license, so now I have a warrant for my arrest because my license was suspended and I got pulled over while driving with a suspended license. I went back to Florida during May and I went to the DMV so I can get a Real ID. After waiting so long in line, the worker told me that I already had a star on my license and would not have to change it, so I didn't. (It was a dumb mistake and I regret it). I am not sure what to do. I feel like I hit a massive wall and this whole time I have just been trying to keep my head above water. I live on my own and I am not sure if I will be able to work or continue to go to school if I turn myself in. I have a court date on the 9th and I want to figure out has anyone been through something similar? Are there any options for me to avoid jail time? I would appreciate any advice right now. Thank you!
