Bollinger County Missouri Arrest Warrant Criminal Records

What Are Warrant Records?

Warrant records, otherwise known as arrest records or criminal records, are part and parcel of our everyday lives. If you are searching for information pertaining to a specific person, an open record search can be conducted easily online. Warrant records in Bollinger County, Missouri contain vital information regarding warrants, arrests, criminal convictions, warrants issued, and more. These are available for public access online through the Missouri State Highway Patrol, City of St Louis Police, Cook County Sheriff, and other designated public record sources.

Warrant records in St Louis are available at the county courthouse or police station. In most instances, records are retained for 90 days unless they are sealed. In those cases where they are sealed, a person can request that their warrant records be sealed. This can only be done by the courts or law enforcement officials. Warrant records are not considered part of public domain and are therefore not available for free online. However, some information is free and accessible via a fee.

Before a warrant can be served, it must be served on the individual. The address and name of the person serving the warrant will be listed at the end of the warrant. If there is no name listed at the end of the warrant, the name and address of the service provider will be used. From there, the warrant can be served directly to the individual.

Warrant records are used for a number of purposes. Searches conducted by law enforcement officials are one of them. They use this information to locate an individual, locate property that is owed, and serve legal papers. The information is also used to prevent the execution of a person’s rights. For instance, they can serve a person with a bench warrant if the person has not been properly served in a certain area.

Warrant searches can also be conducted by someone who has legal rights of privacy. A person can seek protection from being searched and to have searches against their person prevented. This is known as a ” writ of protection.” A search can only be prevented if there is an express legal right of privacy. This can be done through a motion to suppress.

Warrant records are available for public view but not all warrants served are listed. The record keeper may compile these records into one database or they may consolidate the information into different databases. It is also possible for a person to challenge the validity of a warrant. The challenge can be done through an attorney.
