I think finding that out could be difficult.  Warrants could be issued by cities, counties or the state police.  Sounds like either a lot of work making a lot of phone calls or something you could pay someone else to do like a private investigator who may know the ins and outs of how to get information or an attorney.

Yes, warrant will show up in all states if you are stopped. If you were not jailed, you are lucky. Better get it cleared up as soon as possible. Good luck

A warrant card contains the name of the person to be arrested and the reason for the apprehension.

the warrant was issued in good faith, so there is nothing wrong with it.  the accuser made a mistake when the guessed the height ant weight.  that happens a lot.  my weight is missed guessed all the time as lower then it is.  As long as the warrant was issued in good faith there is nothing wrong, the defense can challenge it but it will not go to far.

A warrant check is a check issued by a government treasury office rather than a bank.\n\nMORE INFO:\n\nIn some U.S. states, a warrant is a demand draft drawn on a government's treasury to pay its bills. They are essentially checks (and are often referred to as such), but a different term is used as final payment is made by the treasurer instead of a bank. Most of these warrants have been replaced by checks or electronic payments, but in Arkansas they are still used by the state, and some counties and school districts, for non-electronic payments.

Warrants are active until quashed by the judge.  It is best to contact the court and take care of the outstanding warrant.

If you are not the person listed, they will not give you warrant info over the phone.\n\nThe sheriff office may not be the ones doing it,  were they sheriff officers,  or where they county marshals or city police officers, or state police officers.

But your case day count is stopped if you fail to show up because a warrant is issued.  The statue of limitation is not counting when you have an outstanding warrant on the charge.

Depends upon your state, but usually has to do with the arrest.\n\nIt can be a special type of warrant arrest or sometimes the sw relates to the agency making the arrest.  We would need to know more what location it is at and the context it is in.

NOT ONLY CAN YOU HAVE A BENCH WARRANT ARREST TO DEAL WITH, BUT MY HUSBAND HAD A BAD CHECK FINE THAT WAS PAID OFF 8 YEARS AGO AND WAS TURNED DOWN FROM A JOB WITH INTEL BECAUSE OF IT.  YOUR RECORD CAN HAUNT YOU LONG AFTER YOU THINK YOU HAVE DEALT WITH IT.  THE UNFORTUNATE RESULT OF WAITING TIL NOW TO PAY IT OFF IS THAT, ON YOUR RECORD IT WILL SHOW THE CRIMINAL DATE 10YRS AGO AND IT WILL SHOW THE PAID OFF DATE, NOW, BUT SINCE IT IS BEING RECORDED AS PAID NOW, FOR THE NEXT TEN YEARS THIS IS WILL CONTINUE TO SHOW---EVEN THOUGH IT  HAPPENED 20 YRS AGO.  TAKE CARE OF IT, AND WISH FOR JUSTICE SYSTEM GLINCHES.

Arrest warrants are valid until they have been served. Issuing an arrest warrant is sufficient to satsify statutes of limitations, so even if you manage to avoid the police until the time elapsed, they would still be able to charge you.

If you don't go to court to deal with your current violation, the court will issue a 'bench warrant'. This means they are actively seeking you and will arrest you if you are caught doing ANYTHING including littering.\n\nIf you really want to avoid maximum jail time, go to the court and plead before a judge. Offer to do community service, acknowledge the offense, and most of the time the judge will be lenient. If you don't, you WILL eventually be caught and you'll get NO mercy from the court.

'Any person convicted of ANY drug or other serious offenses who is put on probation, loses the legal right to refuse unreasonable, unwarranted, police searches. Judges routinely impose upon defendants convicted by guilty plea of drug or other crimes involving possession of illicit or stolen things, the condition that they voluntarily submit to a police search, without a warrant, any time of the day or night, in their homes, cars, or of their person, without probable cause. In Alameda County, California, this probation condition is known as a "four-way search clause" (search of person, home, car, or possessions).'\n\nsource: http://www.correspondences.org/archives/000411.html
