Money, Part 2

EDIT: As far as the hotel issue is concerned, it has been dealt with. My boss had the exact same issue. So, someone somewhere dropped the ball on this one whether it was our travel agency, the hotel staff, or someone in our own company. Nonetheless, the issue has been resolved.
Still working on the court deal.
Thank you to everyone who reached out to me with help and advice. I love you all so very much. Thank you :)
I've taken a number of steps so far.
Last night, I talked to the people at the hotel's front desk about their hold on my account. Since the room is only in my name and not in my company's, they are required to leave the hold on my checking account.
I called the bank afterwards, they said there was nothing they could do about either hold, but said I do have overdraft coverage at a penalty of $34/withdrawal with a maximum 3 penalties ($102) per day. This helps since my only bank account is several hundred dollars in the red at the moment. But, at this rate, I will incur so many penalties, that I will still be in the red even after next payday.
I attempted to limit the penalties by going to the ATM and getting the money needed for this trip taken out and using cash, but could not because of insufficient funds.
Called the courts this morning, and until I can schedule a hearing in Celina, there is nothing they can do. Keep in mind, I'm in Utah thru the end of the month.
Going to talk to my boss today, but I don't know what he will be able to do...
I'm scared...

They should be able to send you an advance for the trip, too.
i had this happen once and when I told my boss I had no money to buy a 20.00 needed cable and explained why, she freaked out that they had not thought about it and I had a Cor card in a few days. Sometimes people just assume you have a credit card and you have to tell them you don't.
Especially you, you were just in school. It makes sense you didn't have a card since you've been a student for a few years and now you are just out of the gate. Don't be embarrassed, talk to your boss before things get too bad!
