How do you find out if a misdemeanor warrant has been issued for you in another state?

Answer

Warrants are a matter of public record and police departments and other law enforcement agencies generally post them on their website and/or in some cases newspapers print a list of persons who have active warrants. The information can also be found through online court records but the interested party would probably need to know the court, the date and the docket number where the warrant was issued.

The best place to start would be to do a search of the county police department website where it is believed the warrant may have been issued.
