You're probably thinking about when people talk about harboring a fugitive. If the person has warrants for something like an unpaid speeding ticket then no, you can not get into any trouble for living with them.

What If I think a relative with an out of state warrant is living with your family?

If you think they need to talk to the police then you need to call the police otherwise don't say anything although you can get into trouble if it is found later that you knew you had someone like that and were hiding them.


Can police come into your house without a physical arrest warrant in Ohio to arrest someone living there?

What does the questioner mean by having the "physical" arrest warrant?If it means that, even though there is an existing warrant, but they just don't happen to have it in their possession - for them to act on the knowledge that the warrant exists is still lawful. They do not need to have the actual warrant in their possession in order to act on it.As in most cases involving the law, the CIRCUMSTANCES of the situation dictate what law enforcement can, and should not do. For example;If the police are in 'fresh pursuit' of someone and they run into the house they CAN pursue and arrest the individual inside.If they knock on your door - you open it - and behind you, they see the wanted individual sitting in your living room, they can enter and effect the arrest.

Will a person with a felony warrant be arrested if they travel by air?

Not necessarily. (I am living proof.) I had "serious" felony warrants in MORE THAN ONE U.S. state. Still, I flew both on domestic flights and on international flights with no problems. There is no "Star Trek" style computer (yet) that just "finds" every and any wanted individual wherever & whenever they decide to buy a plane ticket! You're tripping hard if you believe that sort of thing! How did I do it? Well, I didn't "do" anything. I bought a ticket with cash, showed my passport and boarded the aircraft. And, if it is of any interest to you, I have flown in and out of several other nations since then, and the warrant(s) remained active during all of these flights. So, don't believe the nonsense people tell you! Every passenger on every flight isn't cross-referenced for felony warrants!!! That's preposterous! That's "made for t.v." One time, in fact, I skipped a court date (a bench warrant was issued immediately, of course), and then a week later I flew to Amsterdam (and back) despite the felony warrant being active in my name. I was only apprehended when I turned myself in. . . after I returned from Europe! So there! Law Enforcement would have to be actively searching for you at the precise airport from which you departed & at the precise time when you departed. Otherwise, if you pay for your ticket and board the plane like everybody else, NO, nobody is going to stop you!


Why is a warrant generally necessary to a lawfully arrest a person who is residing within his or her own home?

(in the US) A warrant is NOT necessarily required. If the person living there is KNOWN to be wanted for a felony offense, law enforcement may arrest them at any time, with or without a warrant. Not unless the person attempts to hide themselves within the house is a search warrant for the premises required. HOWEVER - in the case of a misdemeanor offense, a warrant would be required because of the elapsed time between the offense and the arrest requires one. Also - in the case of felony offenses - occasionally ongoing investigations run over a lengthy periods of time and after gathering sufficient evidence that the wanted person committed the crime, it is better to present the affidavit containing the probable cause to the judge and have a warrant issued which can then be served at anytime thereafter.


What would define a faulty warrant?

A search warrant could be faulty if it has wrong information on it. Then it would make the search warrant void. This can be the wrong name or a mistake on the address. If there is not a reasonable suspicion it could also be faulty.

Will Wisconsin extradite you on a probation violation warrant from Oregon where you have committed no new crimes and where you are a husband who is needed in the home?

It really depends on the seriousness of your probation, the violation is probably a moot point at this stage (Assuming you absconded) so the real question would be will wisconsin extradite period? I'm a current probation absconder from WI, on a misdemeanor conviction and have been for the last 8 years (Living in the West Coast). There have been a handful of times law enforcement has either gone out of their way, yes actually chased me down after running my plates at a light, or simply pulled me over from speeding only to find out I had a warrant. Point is each time they told me "It was my lucky day" because WI is not extraditing. However more recently one officer warned me the warrant is now a Felony warrant? I suppose absconding is a felony, otherwise my crimes are misdemeanors. Also have a bench warrant, but that will almost NEVER get you sent back. - lots of knowledge through personal experiences.


Can the police search the property of a convicted felon in Illinois without a search warrant?

We need more information to give you an accurate answer. In general, being convicted of a felony does not give law enforcement blanket rights to conduct warrantless searches.Additional: The above is generally a true statement. However, if you are released on parole from prison and are under the supervision of a parole officer, they could possess the authority to conduct a search (without a warrant) of your living quarters to ensure that you are complying with the provisions of your parole.


Can your boyfriend live with me if im on section 8 and he has a felony?

You should contact your local housing authority to inquire about their specific policies.
