If you were bailed to court and failed to appear there is a real possibility that a warrant was issued for your arrest. These warrants never expire and if one exists it may come to light if you cross the border into the UK. Be aware this might even happen accidentally if a future flight were to get diverted into the UK.

Before proceeding with any visa application I would suggest you contact the police station (or constabulary) that dealt with this matter via telephone (you should be able to Google their contact number). Explain your situation and ask them to refer you to someone that can answer your question.

Don't put this off. If you do have to return to court it will be made worse the longer you leave it. There is though a small possibility that the matter was dropped due to you leaving the country but don't get your hopes up too much. Whatever happens, its unlikely you will be imprisoned but they may hold you in police custody until they get you into a court.

Why did you apply for spouse visa?

It seems as if you are a family member of a British Citizen, who was exercising treaty rights in Ireland.

You could have applied for an EEA family permit, which is more straightforward.
