Burgeoning crime instances are quickly turning into the bane of peace and harmony in the community across several states, and Morgan County, Georgia, is no different. So, this is certainly not the right time to relegate the importance of a safety measure like a warrant search in Morgan, GA.

You will be doing yourself a great disservice by not looking for arrest records on a person you intend to do business with or employ. Crime watchers even suggest that you should not be sparing personal acquaintances from an active warrant check. Unfortunately, many people assume that an inquiry for information on active and outstanding warrants cannot be made without alerting the subject.

This could not be further from the truth as a signed consent form is not required to access third party criminal data and information on arrest warrants in Georgia. The only time you would have to notify the subject about the results of such an inquiry is if he/she is denied employment based on the response received. In such a case, the Fair Credit Reporting Act applies, and you will have to tell the person what the report said and the name of the agency that offered it.

To initiate a Morgan, Georgia warrant search, for employment or personal reasons, you can approach:

  • The office of the sheriff: 2380 Athens Hwy, Madison, Georgia 30650
  • The issuing agency which is the magistrate’s court: 384 Hancock St, Madison, GA 30650
  • The judicial department that maintains the court dockets, which in this case is the county clerk’s office: North Second Street, Madison, Georgia 30650.
