How soon can the arrest warrant come down for sentencing?

The arrest warrant does not mean that you will be sentenced. Only those who are found guilty by the court and need to be sentenced will be sentenced. The arrest warrant is a document for the public security organ to arrest a criminal suspect, which is generally approved by the procuratorial organ. After the court accepts the arrest and makes a judgment, it shall make a judgment within two months after accepting it, and no later than three months. After the suspect was arrested by the public security organs, he was detained in the detention center for a period of time, and the verdict was not known until the case was opened.
