Best Answer

(Answer is applicable to the USA only): No - A warrant is issued by a court as an order to a governmental authority (usually a Peace Officer) to seize a person, such that the person is entered into the judicial system to answer specific questions or charges, or perform a specific duty. An arrest warrant, in some cases, may be issued for a person who has not committed a crime and who may not even be charged with a crime, but who is ordered by the court to appear or to perform a specific duty.
