This is my understanding:

Your probation might have expired--but the WARRANT never does, until you take care of it.

Maybe I'm wrong, though, in your case.

...Actually , I didn't understand (briefly) there to be any warrants , anywherein Cali , and , a (not very reliable) legal connection in Santa Cruz claimed that recently , when I asked him to check~ It is at least conceivable that , IF there could be any warrants , there could be ones in the counties of Santa Cruz , San Francisco , and (least likely) Santa Clara (San Jose) .
However.........

What is your situation for tonight?

...I'm going to skim the surface on this...(Though AB knows the backstory on this , I suppose he may have forgotten the exact details...) The San Francisco warrant/s that: (1) definitely existed at one time (2) Supposedly - Based , however , on that not very reliable SC source - have gone away now (3) So , especially given something I won't digress about now , could still be there/come back ~ the SF warrants were " didn't show up for homelessness/camping court dates " that were the same concept as the warrants that led to my Santa Cruz arrests ~ But , in the SF case , went as far back as 2008 !
Look , maybe , if you have more phone or Internet time than I , if someone could , maybe , try to find out what , if any , warrants or probabtion or whatever there could be against me in Santa Clara , San Frfancisco , or Santa Cruz , and call/E on your own time and tell me - privately - the results ? Please ?
If someone is willing to do so , you could PM me and I could give you the details , if you are willing totry and find out what if any things are up on me in Cali ? Please ?

...OK , and another thing ~ Though I'm less despairing than I was before when it was looking like Jean (the social worker) was totally throwing me under the bus re: doing even the first steps regarding getting the information , etc. , that I need to go back - eventually - to college , especially full-flegede " uni " , meaning a " regualr " , four-year-type , BA-track , residential universioty...I still nEED A PLACE TO REST AND RECOVER FROM MY AMPUTATION , AND LEARN TO WALKL AGAIN , as I am wobbly when walking , most notably...

...Tonight , KK , I face going back to the 50= shelter , where it will be INCREDIBLE hassle to deal with ball & chain , getting down the hill and downstairs to them , then , back up again to the bus to the " main " shelter - especially since the 50= will not =even let me go up the stairs a little earlier , saying " You have to get a special card for that " , tat the " main " shelter , tho the relevant person's always not there/it's night/I can't go back - THIS IS CARRYING THE BALL & CHAIN , REMEMBER ~ DOYOU SEE WHY I NEED A PLACE TO REST , A9AND LEAVE MY STUFF) , NOW!! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! ! ? - NOT WAITING LISTS OR " MORE PILLS " ?
Most people get to recover when they're sick . Not me .
This has me down again , thinking " If I was floating in Puget Sound " ~ Other Aspies got help , have homes...I only ask for temporary recuperation , and am treated like (Intentionally offensive/passe metaphor here) the Wandering Jew ~ " Move on " ! !! !! !! !! !! ...Anyway , back to my original subject (Oh , and there's a very good chancde that , as before , after being taken to the " main " shelter , there will be no room and I'll be taken back and fumped downtown ...)

Yes, that's the top priority, right now the other things are not as important as your recovery in a safe place with appropriate support and care. Any update on progress toward that? You need safety, rest, care and recovery time . Right now, nothing else matters. Focus on this as singlemindedly as you can, ie what is happening today in your quest to obtain this. Stay in the present as much as you can, even though it is full of scary stuff and pain. For now ignore the past and the options for the more distant future. We want to know that you are in the safe place you need as soon as possible. We care and we worry about you. The only way out is through... you have to keep going through this tunnel until you emerge into that safe place. It won't be perfect (few things are as you must know) but it's going to be a big turning point in your recovery. Good luck Ass-P; I will be thinking of you.

...Anyway , it has occured to me that , under that " Housing First " thing where " the HL who are the most ER/jail-troubling get places , reducing the trouble & expense for them " , perhaps back in Cali I could , being known already on that leavel , and signed up on some list in Santa Cruz...maybe I could get housing in Cali , even with maybe some small jail - or hospital (or not) first .
I HATE the weather up here ! !! !! !! !! !!
I would need money to get away from here .
I already at least partly outlined how I would need more $ to " set myself up better " even staying up here , above didn't I ?

FYI northern California is getting the same pineapple express as we are getting up here.

I know that in NZ there is a website called "Give a Little" where people in distress post for help, anyone who desperately needs a helping hand up and has fallen into a dreadful situation. People give generously to complete strangers. I don't know if there is anything similar in the states, but there may be. You need to be clear how much you need, what for, why, and don't just list your grievances.. even though they may be justified. Be concise, clear and don't ask for more than you immediately need. If there isn't such a website, maybe someone on WP could invent one, we have web-clever people here.

It's amazing and touching how much people give to complete strangers on the NZ site - not large amounts but they mount up. You do need a bank account or a trustee organisation that can receive donations for you. Aloha may be able to help with receipts if you go down this path to get some basic funds together to dedicate to the most important need you have - safe haven for recovery and adequate care.

...Briefly , I was told by Jean that Aloha may not be do-able , for someone with my past (So-called " mental " ? And the misdemeanors/jail time ?) .
mIf I got a bus ticket away from here , I'd need to prepare , then , I could rest on the bus and maybe fina a hospital in Cali ?
I think hospitals up here arte directed to be briskwith HL now . I NEED TO REST ! !! !! !! !!
If I was to try to " put down roots "here , I would need to spend money to do so , I have outlined that at least some .
There's also that " notary-public " thing I've mentioned , which has problems which outline my problems now...........

Here's one of the links to the site. Anything like this in Seattle? Google?

Yes, there are websites where people can post for charitable donations for whatever their personal reason or cause is - websites like "go fund me." Some people raise money for medical expenses. I saw one kid with a page where people had donated because he was half way around the world traveling and was having the time of his life and wanted to extend his stay and not go home for as long as he could. So, random strangers donated some money - probably because they were living vicariously through this young world traveler and wanted to support him in his journey that they wish they'd done when they were 21. But yeah, there are plenty of sites out there where people can plead their case to fundraise for whatever they want or need money for. If people agree with their cause and want to contribute, they do, and share the page so it goes viral.

...I slept ouytside last night , in that resturaunt enclave .
Frankly , my body was sick of taking the ball & chin (luggage) DOWN to the 50-plus , then back upo again , then onto a crowded bus , to the " master " shelter (with people on the bus sometimes complaining about me) , then , with no room there recently , back to the pick-up place !
It was a rainy night , however .
Also ~ Something that I thought had gone away with the amputation , this swollen-ness on my ankles and feet (Probably up the leg as well , but as I have long pants on...) , which leaves my feet looking like Play-Dough feet , or baked marshmallows , so swollen are they , was back !
I'm not sure if I ever mentioned that here before , but it's true .
I really did tend to think that the amputation , & the infection's removal , had put paid to it .
Not so .
I think one particular contributing reason for it being back now could be...........

I wonder what the level of your vitamin C intake is at present - you need much higher amounts during recovery - I hope you are able to get adequate intake levels, it's pretty important during wound healing Ass-P. I wonder if Aloha could provide you with some vitamin and mineral supplements, even if they could loan you the money for them and you can pay them back later.

...Instead of directly continuing from whereI left off above,I will address what B19 and GO said now.
Actually,as far as medical things go, my last ER visit had them telling me I'm MASSIVELY anemic, which I had been told before.
However,anyway , as far as the " get cash " sites that have been referenced, the problem is ,I am REALLY not" a full citized of the Internet ", especially with the tablet gone now ,and no cellphone either .
I am amember of a suprising number of famed sites, but I (1) have nothing to say on them~ practically,anyway ~ at this time,or (2) My lack of technology knowledge, AND access,makesputting something up either impossible or ,anyway,likely to be at a level that would be ignored , maybe even disapproved of by the site .
Putting up graphics ? Apicture of me? An icon ?
Can't do it .
I have even ,IIRC,tried to get help from people" in showing me how to do a fewmore things " but never gotten a response/enough .
I once tried to put up an " Aspergers' guy wants to go back to school"-type thing on Indiegogo?? Kickstarter?? but couldn't really put things up.
I am a member of Couchsurfers, but I recallmy lack of graphs/ix hurtme when I triedto talk on that.
Going aay from direct " I coulkd get stuff/$ " sites,I am on LinkedIn (that rather incompetent as far as his helping ME went lawyer in Santa Cruz I mentioned is on it and I regularly get notices of his adding connections .), but I just have nothing to say on LI at present ~ I'm not in any position to look for a job, and certainly not a LinkedIn-type job, at present.
I'M HOMELESS, YA KNOW ! !! !! !! !! Dude.
But, though itmight in fact nice to get moneyto help with either" trying to settle down " herein Seatttle or get away from here...Well ,Idunno.
I said what I said.
