An OFA (Order For Arrest) is basically a bench warrant. It is signed into motion by a judge, justice, or clerk and requires that the named person be taken into custody. The main difference between an OFA and a bench warrant is that an OFA may be signed for a debtor company or entity. In this case, an authority figure, manager, or owner of said debtor or entity may be arrested to speak for the company. Also, an OFA is generally used when there is not enough information on exactly how or where to arrest said person is available. For example, when it is determined that someone needs to be arrested, if there is no address information, or it is known the person resides out of state, an OFA may be issued instead of a bench warrant.
