As far as active warrants in Dade County, Georgia are concerned, the magistrate’s court plays a traditional role in the process of their issue. Upon receiving a formal complaint from the police department or the state prosecutor, the sitting magistrate deliberates on the information available in the matter up to that point.

The evidence collected has to be enough for a person of reasonable mind to concur with the police on the accused’s guilt. The affidavit has to start with an explanation of why the police believe that a particular incident was a criminal act, to begin with. This procedure is known as the establishment of probable cause.

The order for detention issued after the completion of this procedure is legally termed as an active warrant.
