Information About Warrant Records In Leake County

Anytime that you are required to turn over personal records of yourself or someone else, it is called a “warrant.” Most warrants that are processed in Leake County, Mississippi will have the defendant’s name on it. A warrant may be issued for one of a number of reasons. One common reason is for suspicion of murder. Another common reason is if a person is wanted on a warrant for some type of offense, even if they are not charged with the offense.

If the person who is wanted does not show up as expected and the warrant is still active, the local law enforcement agency can place a “wanted” sign on public property. They do this by covering the space with yellow tape. In most counties, this means that the person has been Wanted. When they do appear, they will be served with a court summons. If they do show up and honor the summons, the court will then give them the right to appear before a judge.

A warrant can be revoked by the local courthouse when it is no longer valid. This usually happens when the person that is wanted stops coming to court and fails to show up for their court date. It can also happen when they go to trial but miss their first appearance. The clerk at the courthouse will inform the local police.

Warrant records contain much more than just the name of the person who is accused of a crime. You can find out the crime that they were arrested for as well as the severity of the charge, whether they pled guilty or not guilty, when the case was tried, the judge, length of the sentence, the evidence used at trial and other details related to the case. These records are considered public record and can be freely obtained by any person over the age of eighteen.

There are many reasons why people would need to look up warrants. If you are hiring someone to work for you, such as a nanny or babysitter, you should check to see if they have a criminal background. Likewise if you have just moved into a new place and want to check if there are any illegal weapons in your home. If you are an employer and you want to make sure that your potential employees have a clean record, then a background search will allow you to do this.

Even if you have never had to use one before, it can be very useful to know what you are up against. For example, you can use it to keep an eye on your teenagers to make sure they are not getting into any trouble. If you suspect your spouse of being unfaithful, a background check will allow you to find this out. It can really help you to protect your family and your property.
