DeSoto County Warrant Records DeSoto County Warrant Records

What follows sets out what this site can and cannot help with, and where questions about official DeSoto County warrants should actually go. Almost every request belongs with the Sheriff's Warrant and Fugitive Division in Hernando or with the court that signed the process, rather than with us. The routing below sends each kind of question to the office that can answer it.

This Is Not a Government or Law Enforcement Office. We operate a private reference site. We cannot tell you whether a warrant exists, recall or clear one, take a bond payment, arrange a surrender, or give legal advice to anyone. For any of those, the DeSoto County Sheriff's Warrant and Fugitive Division or the issuing court has to be contacted directly.

Need Official Warrant Information?

These are the routes for the questions people ask most often in DeSoto County, Mississippi:

  • An arrest warrant tied to a charge: the judge who signed it sets the charge and the bond, while the Fugitive Unit serves county process
  • Whether a warrant exists: contact the Warrant and Fugitive Division, the unit the county directs the public to for active-warrant questions during business hours
  • A bench warrant after a missed court date: contact the court that set the case, which is often a Justice Court district on 662-469-8026 or a city municipal court, since that court issued and holds it
  • A Circuit or County Court case: the Circuit Clerk keeps those files at 2535 Highway 51 S, second floor, Hernando, on 662-469-8007, with docket access through Mississippi Electronic Courts
  • Resolving or clearing a warrant: speak with a licensed Mississippi attorney and the issuing court about a recall, a new setting, a surrender, or posting bond
