Technically speaking, post FIR is quashed, proceedings before the lower court come to end, however since lower court has not received High court orders, it is correct in issuing Warrants, however if you produce copy of high court orders that on the day warrants were issued, proceedings were already quashed, warrants shall be cancelled by the lower court. Your lawyer should have informed court that the FIR has been quashed, and/or produced copy of orders uploaded online on high court website
