No they don't need a warrant. They can enter and arrest the individual. They are not authorized to do a full search of the residence, however, they can search the immediate vicinity of the individual for things he may have stashed or weapons that might pose a threat to the officers.

What are the requirements for forced entry pertaining to a misdemeanor warrant?
There are none, because forced entry by police executing a misdemeanor warrant is always forbidden in the United States. This may also be the case in most other countries. The only time when police are permitted to intrude and break into a private citizen's own home while executing a warrant, regardless of the likelihood of the person's guilt, is when they are executing a search warrant, or possibly an arrest warrant for a very serious crime, like murder. This law is very important, since it makes home invasions by the police illegal in the one place in which every person, even criminals, should have an absolute right to be safe and secure.

A warrant can be served at any time and many actually ARE served at late and unusual hours, because that's when the police can be pretty sure that they will find who, or what, they want at the premises. Also, there is an added advantage in that the people in the residence are likely to be groggy, confused, and less likely to put up any resistance.

It depends on why he is entering. Was he called to the residence? Is he or she doing a 'welfare check'? What type of call history has there been at that residence? If the police officer has an arrest warrant, and knows the person named in the warrant is in the residence, then in the state of NC, the answer is yes.
Can a judge from a different county issue a search warrant for a residence in that same county to another county?
