No, not necessarily. The authorities are already legally "armed" with the power of arrest - they don't have to show you anything extra to prove that they have the power to arrest you. You will be advised at your first appearance before ocurt

What case you we can file for the police he arrest a person without warrant?
Police do not necessarily need a warrant to arrest someone. Basically an arrest means that they have strong reason to believe that someone has broken the law. A warrant allows them to arrest the person on sight even if they are doing nothing wrong at the time. If you feel like the arrest is unjust your best option is to get an attorney.
Do police have to show you the search warrant prior to breaking down your door?
No they do not. If they have a signed search warrant they are allowed to enter without notice. They are only required to show you the warrant upon your request to see it. If they do not allow you to see the warrant, this could potentially invalidate the search and make any evidence found against you during the search inadmissible.Added: While the above may be true in the specific case of the service of search warraants, it is NOT so in the case of the service of an arrest warrant. Mere knowledge of the existence of an arrest warrant for an individual is sufficient to take that person into custody. The arrestee need not be shown the actual warrant at the time of arrest.
Does a bench warrant turn into an arrest warrant after a length of time?

How many warrants can a teenager get before they get arrested?
It could be one. There are search warrants and arrest warrants. If you have a search warrant, the police are entitled to search your property. After executing the search warrant, if the police establish probable cause to believe that you committed a crime, they can arrest you. If you have an arrest warrant, it is only a matter of time before the police find you and execute the arrest warrant.
If a police department agrees to having you turn yourself in after a warrant being issued do they have the right to go to your work and arrest you if it has only been twenty four hours?

Whats the main differences between arrest with and without a warrant?
Without a warrant you must find reasonable grounds to arrest someone, whereas with a warrant your reason to arrest the suspect already exists. Without a warrant a Police Officer can arrest anyone without permission of a Magistrate as long as they follow the correct procedures so their arrest is lawful, which is unlike an arrest with a warrant where you must be granted the warrant to be able to arrest that person. Without a warrant, a Police Officer can mess the arrest up and make it an unlawful arrest but with a warrant it is very unlikely that they make it an unlawful arrest.
What is the required time to do if there was a warrant out for the persons arrest?
