In Georgia, the Magistrate Court has jurisdiction to issue arrest warrants and search warrants. Some courts in Georgia maintain an online database for criminal records; however, Colquitt County is not one of those fortunate few. Colquitt County keeps very few records online if any, but none of them relate to arrest warrants or criminal records. To search for arrest records in Colquitt County, you must first begin with the court where warrants are issued.

The Magistrate Court for Colquitt County is located at 101 E. Central Avenue, Office 175 in Moultrie, GA 31776. To get information about active or outstanding warrants, you will need to visit the court during regular business hours, Monday through Friday, from 8:00 am until 5:00 pm.
