Warrants are issued by the Court of Common Pleas to the Montgomery County Sheriff for those individuals that fail to appear at hearings and fail to follow the order of the court pertaining to their cases. The Sheriff has direct power of arrest of these individuals which results in their INCARCERATION until the court schedules a hearing. Sheriff Deputies are called upon to serve both criminal and civil warrants. For high profile warrants under the extradition law, deputies may travel to any of the fifty states to bring the subject before the courts. The Sheriff's Department uses a vast array of technology to research, track and apprehend those with warrants. It is important to know that most warrants can be settled without incarceration by reporting to the Sheriff's Department Warrants Section to settle those matters. This method saves, time, cost, loss of job and the embarrassment of confinement.
