Unfortunately, you will have to deal with the charge for each State, in that State. I suggest that you consult with a lawyer licensed in the State most likely to go to Court first, see what type of legal issues and consequences there are; and, then consult with a lawyer in the second State about the same issues. You can then make an informed decision knowing your options. Good luck.
