When a police officer arrests someone based on an improperly issued warrant the warrant protects the officer from liability?
If the officer reasonably believes the warrant is valid, then the officer is protected from any legal (or civil) consequence. However, the key phrase to that is "the officer reasonably believes".
If someone manages to prove that the officer "should have known better", or that the officer lied in order to have the warrant issued, the officer can be held liable, as they knew the warrant was invalid.

When a police officer arrests someone based on an improperly issued warrant what happens?
All they are doing is carrying out the act of arrest, or search. When a warrant is issued signed by a judge, the officer is acting on the good faith that the warrant was properly applied for and was approved by proper judicial review.

How could you find out if the officer who arrested or questioned you has behaved improperly in the past?
YOU, as an individual, will not be able to see them, but if you have an attorney representing you who believes your contact with the officer, or your arrest, was handled improperly and is part of an ongoing pattern by this particular officer he may ask the court for permission to subpoena the officer's personnel file. However, the court will not allow "fishing expeditions," and unless you can demonstrate that your particular arrest was handled improperly your request will probably not be granted.

However, if the officer is found to be negligent or to have acted with willful misconduct, they may face greater liability. Specific limits can vary based on agency policies and applicable laws.
