The Court heard that Booth was unable toi attend as she was on 'important business', however the presiding judge found there was no evidence to support her reason for failing to appear, that Booth was aware of the need to appear, and the Court therefore was of the opinion that Booth intended to evade justice and made an order that an arrest warrant be issued.
Booth was previosly refuised entry to the UK in 2010 following UK immigraiton being advised her marriage to Dennis Booth had broken down. Booth was detained at Glasgow Airport before being deported to Thailand.
Booth appealed the decision by UK immigration, and despite success in the Immigration Appeal Tribunal, UK immigration has since not permitted her to re- enter the UK.
Booth grabbed media intention when she threatended to commit suicide in front of the UK Embassy in Bangkok.

The Thai Ministry of Information and Communications Technology (MICT) has already blocked Drummond's site.
