Not a Consumer Reporting Agency. This website is not a consumer reporting agency as defined by the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA).

Background checks for those purposes must go through an FCRA-compliant screening provider.
Privately Operated Reference Site
This site is privately operated. We are not a court, a sheriff's office, or any government body, and we hold no authority over the matters described here. We do not issue warrants, serve warrants, or keep any official warrant system. We simply point you to the offices that do - the Clinton County Sheriff's Office, the 65A District Court that issues most local warrants, the 29th Judicial Circuit Court that hears felony cases, and the state systems open to public search.
Accuracy of Information
Courts and sheriff's offices change phone numbers, hours, addresses, fees, and procedures without much notice, and warrant systems get updated throughout the day. We do our best to keep our pages current, but we cannot guarantee that every detail on this site is correct at any given moment. Before you visit a counter or send a payment, call the office directly to confirm.
Warrant Status Changes - Verify Before You Rely
A warrant is a living record. Warrants are issued, recalled, quashed, served, and sometimes sealed, and a status can change from one day to the next. A search that comes back clear is not proof that no warrant exists - an order may not have been entered yet, may sit with a different court, or may never appear on a public list. A listing you saw last week may not reflect what the record says today. Before you act on a warrant's status, or on its absence, confirm it with the sheriff's office or the court that issued it.
Treat every warrant result you find as a starting point, not the final word. Only the sheriff's office or the issuing court can confirm whether a warrant currently exists and whether it has been recalled, served, or sealed.
Verify With the Official Source
Nothing on this site is an official record. If a decision depends on a warrant's status - whether one exists, its charge, its bond, or whether it has been cleared - get the answer from the office that holds the record: the sheriff's office, the court that issued the warrant, or a state system the public may search. An official confirmation has to come from the issuing court or the sheriff.
Not Legal Advice
Nothing on this site is legal advice. We point you to resources and explain how warrants generally work in Clinton County, but a website cannot replace a licensed attorney - especially for an outstanding warrant, a surrender, bond, or how a warrant affects you.
Third-Party Search Tools
Some pages on this site include search boxes powered by third-party companies. We do not control what those tools return, how they price their services, or how they handle data you submit. Results from those tools may be incomplete, outdated, or matched to the wrong warrant or person, and they carry the same FCRA restrictions described above.
Outbound Links
We link to sheriff's office sites, court portals, state record systems, and other resources. We are not responsible for the content, accuracy, or availability of any external site.
No Records on This Site
This site does not host any warrants, warrant lists, case files, or court records. We point you to the offices that do hold those records. To confirm an actual warrant, you have to check with the sheriff's office or the court that issued it. Requests for government-held records are handled under Michigan's Freedom of Information Act, MCL 15.231 et seq., rather than through this site.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can you tell me if there is a warrant for me?
No. We do not host or maintain any warrant system. The official answer comes from the sheriff's office or the issuing court. You can start with a warrant lookup or by contacting the sheriff.
Does a clear result mean I have no warrant?
No. A clear result is not proof no warrant exists. Warrants get added, recalled, served, or sealed, and some never appear on a public list. Confirm your status directly with the sheriff or the court.
Who can clear or recall a warrant?
Only the court that issued the warrant can recall or clear it. Talk to an attorney and the issuing court.
