If a spelling or other error does not substantially change the facts of the case, the error is irrelevant to the case's outcome.

Added; Minor incorrect entries, or mis-spellings, which do not materially alter the clear intent of the warrant (or other document) are known as "scriveners errors."

Is it against the Law to arrest somebody that's name is not on the warrant?

A warrant is not required for an arrest. If the officer has ample evidence that a crime has been committed and circumstances of immediacy pertain, they can arrest someone on the spot.


Is a warrant the same as a charge?

No, a warrant is not the same as a charge. A warrant means the authorities have enough evidence to indicate that further investigation is required or that it is reasonable that charges can be made. A warrant for arrest indicates that there is apparently enough evidence to bring charges and a judge agrees.

Can they come in your house with an arrest warrant if your not there but someone els is?

An arrest warrant does not grant any form of entry into a residence. If you answer the door they can arrest you, if not they cannot. The exception to this is warrants for felonies, which allow them to enter the premises if they have cause to believe you are there or that evidence of where you have gone might be found there.

Can the date of birth be wrong on a arrest warrant?

The date of birth should not be incorrect on an arrest warrant. A persons date of birth, social security number, and description are key pieces of information needed for an arrest warrant. However, if your social security number and description are correct, human-error on your date of birth may not totally squash an arrest warrant. I've seen warrants where a persons date of birth is 01/05/1970 and the warrant listed 05/01/1970, but the social security, and physical descriptions were dead on.


Whats the main differences between arrest with and without a warrant?

Without a warrant you must find reasonable grounds to arrest someone, whereas with a warrant your reason to arrest the suspect already exists. Without a warrant a Police Officer can arrest anyone without permission of a Magistrate as long as they follow the correct procedures so their arrest is lawful, which is unlike an arrest with a warrant where you must be granted the warrant to be able to arrest that person. Without a warrant, a Police Officer can mess the arrest up and make it an unlawful arrest but with a warrant it is very unlikely that they make it an unlawful arrest.
