Introduction To Outstanding Warrants

An outstanding warrant is a legal order issued by a judge that remains active until the subject is arrested or the matter is otherwise resolved. Warrants can be issued for failing to appear in court, violating probation or being suspected of a crime.

Ohio courts issue different types of warrants based on the circumstances of a case. These include:

  • Arrest warrants: Issued when law enforcement has probable cause to detain someone suspected of committing a crime
  • Bench warrants: Typically issued for failing to appear in court or violating court orders
  • Search warrants: Permit authorities to search a specific location for evidence related to a criminal investigation
  • Extradition warrants: When a person is wanted in another state and needs to be returned to face charges

Having any of these warrants outstanding can result in legal consequences, making it crucial to address them promptly.

Consequences Of Having An Outstanding Warrant In Ohio

Failing to address an outstanding warrant can result in severe penalties, including:

  • Arrest and detention
  • Increased penalties and fines
  • Impact on daily life
