What Are Warrant Records?

Warrant Records in Mississippi County Missouri are maintained by the county and they are accessible to anyone who needs to have them. Anytime that a law enforcement agency wants to search a person’s records they will have to first go through the jurisdiction of the county and then fill out a form stating that they are doing so. This is very important because the person who is being searched will have to sign this form before anything can be done to their record.

The first thing that a criminal defense attorney would have to do is to challenge the legality of the warrants. When a person has been arrested on suspicion of breaking the law there will be an arrest warrant out for their arrest. These warrants usually state that the person has committed a crime; such as second degree murder, armed robbery, first degree murder, drug trafficking, theft and other similar crimes. It could also include several other charges as well. Once the individual knows that their warrant is out they may not be able to go to certain places or do certain things with regards to their own legal rights.

There are many reasons that a person may be put under arrest for a crime, but having a criminal record alone does not mean that one is necessarily a suspect in a crime. It just means that they were arrested. People who are accused of a crime are entitled to an attorney. An attorney can advise their client about what to do in order to get out of any criminal charges. If the attorney is unable to counsel their client then they have the option of hiring a private criminal lawyer.

When it comes to getting access to a person’s criminal history a warrant search can only be conducted if the person’s name has been included on someone else’s record. This means that the person being investigated must already have a warrant out for their arrest. It is not necessary for someone to be actually arrested when they have a warrant. For example, a person can be taken into custody and asked to undergo a warrant search without actually being arrested.

Having a record will also show up on your own criminal history. You will see a yellow mark against your name if you have ever been convicted of a crime. The same thing goes if you have ever been convicted of a misdemeanor. A warrant will show up on your public records if you have ever committed a crime or misdemeanor. The only way to have it removed is to have it cleared through pardon or expungement.

There is a process that goes along with getting a warrant. The person who wants to search for their own warrant needs to hire a private investigator to get a court order. Once the investigator has the court order they will then be able to perform a search. The investigator can also inform the person that they have a warrant for their arrest.
