How do you find out if you have an active warrant out on you?

Answer 1

Call the jurisdiction where you think a warrant may be active for you. Most agencies will disclose this information over the telephone as the information is generally considered "for public knowledge."

If the warrant was issued by a Grand Jury as a Secret Indictment then you may not be able to find out over the telephone. Some county Sheriff's Departments will check their NCIC Computer for active warrants if requested to do so. Consider they may be busy with other things when you call and if they cannot check at the time you call, ask for a more convenient time.

Good Luck. Just a word of encouragement...it would be better for your life circumstances to take care of any warrants so you can truly live in freedom. Peace of mind is priceless...

>In the US you can call the local county court house where you think it may have been issued. They will generally tell you if you have a warrant and if any other court dates have been issued if you have a warrant due to missing one. Turning yourself in looks best, especially if it is a minor case.
