Without reading the police reports it is very difficult to even guess. Some will depend on how much of each drug he possessed, some will depend on his record and some on the attitude of the DA.

What will happen due to my failure to appear?

Warrants are forever. For a defendant to handle this, they must turn themselves into the court, with or without an attorney, and try to negotiate a plea bargain on the warrant and on the outstanding charges. Doing so voluntarily will result in a better outcome than being brought in cuffs to court someday after arrest on the warrant. That will happen if the defendant comes into contact with law enforcement or customs anywhere in the US. Since this is a misdemeanor, the attorney can appear in court without the defendant being present, and any plea bargain deal could be handled by notarized paperwork. Any fines could be paid by mail. Jail time, if any, would create an obvious problem requiring the defendants presence. If your attorney can show you have been clean and an upright citizen for those three years, maybe this will result in no jail time. If this is in SoCal courts, and you're serious about getting legal help doing so, feel free to contact me.
