What can you do when a judge states a warrant will be withdrawn but the judge fails to withdraw the warrant and the person is arrested for failure to appear in court but person was there?

Answer:
You can file a motion to recall warrant and explained to the judge the situation.

Added: If the warrant that was supposed to have been withdrawn WAS served on you and you were taken into custody. . . when you appear in court, the record of your previous appearance will be reflected in the case file. You will probably be released - hopefully with an apology - but if you are asking what remedy you may have to this oversight . . . you will have to consult with an attorney for that advice.
