This is located at 1200 N Telegraph Rd, Pontiac, MI 48328.

To reach the office of the clerk of court, head to the same justice center that houses the magistrate’s court.

Finally, also visit the sheriff’s department. Situated at 1200 North Telegraph Road Building 38E, Pontiac, Michigan 48341, the local police maintain extensive warrant and arrest records from Oakland. They are always happy to offer these details in the interest of community safety.
