Types of Warrants in Noble County
Arrest warrants in Noble County are issued by Circuit or Superior Court judges when law enforcement presents probable cause through a sworn affidavit. Under IC 35-33-2-1, every arrest warrant must be in writing, signed by the issuing judge, and state the offense. Noble County deputies and Indiana State Police troopers can both execute arrest warrants. Once issued, the warrant stays active until it's served or the court recalls it.
Bench warrants come from the court itself, not from a law enforcement request. A Noble County judge issues one when a defendant fails to appear for a scheduled hearing, misses a court-ordered payment, or violates conditions of pretrial release or probation. They carry the same legal weight as arrest warrants. Under IC 35-33-2-2, officers who receive a warrant for service are required to execute it and return documentation to the issuing court after it's done.
Search warrants authorize Noble County law enforcement to search a location for specific evidence. These require a sworn affidavit showing probable cause before a judge signs them. Under IC 35-33-2-4, the warrant must describe the place to be searched and the specific items sought. Once executed, the warrant and return paperwork become part of the court file and are generally accessible to the public through the Clerk's office in Albion.
