Are you looking for the Dallas County warrant list?  If you think you have a warrant out for your arrest in Dallas, locating it isn’t as easy as you might think.  To determine whether you have a warrant, the first step is to determine whether you truly have a Dallas County warrant, or a warrant issued by the City of Dallas.

If you were arrested or cited by a City of Dallas Police Officer for a class C misdemeanor violation, and you think you may have an active arrest warrant, you will want to search the City of Dallas citation search page, which will provide you with information on any outstanding Dallas Municipal Court violations that may be pending against you.  For further information on City of Dallas warrants, you can visit the Dallas Police Department’s arrest warrants page, or contact them by phone at 214.670.0109.

As you’ve likely figured out by now, there’s not a single Dallas County warrant list that you can check.  To further complicate matters, it’s possible to have a warrant out for your arrest that hasn’t yet been entered onto any of these systems.  On occasion, an officer can possess a “pocket warrant,” signed by a judge, that you won’t be able to locate, even if you check all of these sources.  Also, arrest warrants issued on unfiled Dallas County cases are also difficult to find.  If you think you may have a warrant out for your arrest, contact an attorney immediately.  A skilled lawyer can determine whether you have a warrant, where and when it was issued, and advise you as to the proper course of action.  Frequently, it’s possible to post bond without your having to be arrested.  Don’t wait until you’re under arrest!  Call an attorney today!
