Woodford County, Kentucky arrest warrants can be found with the office of the sheriff, the magistrate’s court, as well as the department of the clerk of court. The root source of such orders is the local criminal tribunal. Yet, it cannot be ignored that several justice agencies involve themselves in the task of warrant issue and execution.

For instance, the police have to execute all arrest orders, but they don’t always wait for the judiciary to issue a detention decree of its own accord. In fact, the tribunal cannot release active warrants in Woodford County suo moto. This means that the police have to file a petition for such orders before the court considers granting them.

This should explain how and why information on outstanding warrants finds its way to the magistrate’s office and the sheriff’s department. The clerk of court’s office can also be used to conduct a warrant search in Woodford County. This agency gets involved because they are in charge of keeping the court dockets.

To collect trial-related information, a deputy from the county clerk’s office will be present throughout the court session, whether the matter being heard is civil or criminal. So, the clerk of court will not only be able to find Woodford arrest warrants for you, but also this office will be able to provide information on bench warrants, arrest records, search decrees, and more.
