In Macomb County, MI, the police have to mandatorily approach the local criminal court for the issue of active arrest warrants. In fact, the local law enforcement agency cannot even put a bench warrant into effect on their own. To put it simply, the judiciary, and not law and order agencies, retains the right of issuing detention instruments like arrest warrants.

Because many justice entities come together for the warrant’s issue and execution, it is only natural for them all to retain arrest records and information about outstanding warrants. Needless to say, this bodes well for people who are interested in conducting Macomb warrant searches. They are never too far away from an agency that can get the details on arrest warrants.

Generally, people start their hunt for warrant details at the sheriff’s post. So, it is not uncommon to see people lining up at the public services or the records division of the sheriff’s head office at 43565 Elizabeth Rd, Mt Clemens, Michigan 48043, waiting for the clerk to retrieve their search results for them.

Although the law enforcement agency has a strict policy concerning the method that can be used for the dissemination of such data, it is possible to make a formal request for the search even over the phone by calling on 586-469-5151

The county clerk’s office and the magistrate’s court are usually second and third in line when it comes to a preferred state agency approached for access to criminal history information. These agencies are located at:

  • County clerk: 10 North Gratiot, Mt. Clemens, Michigan 48043
  • Magistrate: 35071 23 Mile Rd, New Baltimore, MI 48047
