A bench warrant is issued by a judge when an individual fails to appear in court as required, often for a scheduled hearing or trial.

Bench warrants can also be issued for contempt of court or other violations related to court orders. The primary purpose is to ensure that the judicial process is upheld and that individuals fulfill their legal obligations.
