If it's an arrest warrant, sure. Doesn't matter what it's for, though it sounds more like a bench warrant for contempt of court, when someone failed to show for a hearing on overdue child support.
An arrest warrant is an arrest warrant, they can kick your door down whether it's a misdemeanour or a felony.
NO NO, but if they do have probable cause, they'll kick the door in. Probable cause does not always involve a piece of paper.............like a warrant. If you lock the door, after they speak to you, you can be charged with obstructing and delaying, if they had probable cause.
no it is not, but be aware that if your door is open,even a screen door, it is legal for them to just walk inside warrant or not
Of course they can. That's what a warrant is issued for - to take you into custody.
It depends. On one hand, if a child or nonresident answers the door and (surprise!) it's the police, they will generally give the door answerer a chance to bring the resident to the door. On the other hand, if there is a warrant for the resident's arrest or there is reasonable doubt, this etiquette goes away. They are required to make the warrant arrest when they come in contact with the perpetrator. Reasonable doubt would be something like if the officer saw drug paraphernalia and contraband sitting on the end table next to the door. This is also when they will enter whether they have permission or not, make their arrests, and do their questioning, possibly of everyone (excluding minors) who is in the residency at that time.
No, individuals are typically not notified directly about the issuance of a warrant. Law enforcement may attempt to apprehend you if you have an outstanding warrant, but there is no direct notification process. It is advisable to address any legal issues promptly to avoid complications.
Unless it is divided into apartments or seperately rented rooms, a search warrant is generally good for an ENTIRE premises.
Only if you have been "dimed" out for having contraband--drugs or stolen items--in your room and a search warrant is being executed.
Take te child lock off of the door
Yes, you are wanted for a FELONY!
So long as they give proper time for the door to be answered (depends on the state), then yes.
No, they may not forcibly enter your home without a warrant. Let's say your music is too loud and they come over and knock at your door, you do not have to answer the door. It might be a good idea to turn down your music as to quicken their leave, but you are not required to answer regardless.
