Arrest warrants act as the legal vehicle for law enforcement officers to make an arrest. However, an officer does not need an arrest warrant to arrest if the crime occurs within his presence. Most jurisdictions prefer that an officer swear out an arrest warrant unless taking the time to do so will result in harm to the public or the suspect getting away. You can search for arrest warrants in Hart County by contacting the local law enforcement agency or the courts.

You may begin your warrant search by contacting the Sheriff for Hart County to check for outstanding warrants. Outstanding warrants are simply warrants that have not been served yet. You will likely have to visit the office at 155 North Carolina Street in Hartwell, GA 30643 to get information. There you can request copies of arrest records for warrants that have already been served and request a criminal background history (there may be fees for these searches).

For a warrant search to be complete, you should also search the criminal cases filed with the county courts for any active warrants. You will need to search the court records for both the Superior Court and the Magistrate Court. The Superior Court is located at 185 West Franklin Street in the Courthouse Annex in Hartwell, GA 30643, and the Magistrate Court is located just a few doors down at 165 West Franklin Street.
