This Is Not a Government or Law Enforcement Office. We operate a private reference site. We cannot confirm whether a warrant exists, recall or clear one, post bond, arrange a surrender, or give legal advice for anyone. For any of those, contact the court that issued the warrant or the sheriff's office that holds it.

Need Official Warrant Information?

Here is where the questions people ask most often about Kalamazoo County should go:

  • Whether a warrant exists: call the court that set the case. The 8th District Court confirms district matters, and the 9th Circuit criminal clerk confirms felony files that were bound over. No public county roster exists.
  • A bench warrant after a missed court date: contact the court that had the case, since only that court can recall the warrant and put the matter back on a docket.
  • Resolving or clearing a warrant: talk to a licensed Michigan attorney and the issuing court about a motion to recall, a voluntary surrender, or posting bond.
  • A police report or citation record: request it in writing from the agency that made it, which may be the sheriff's office or a city police department.

For records held by the county sheriff, the request goes to the Records Section at 1500 Lamont Avenue, attention Records Section, Kalamazoo, MI 49048, and the office asks that you call 269-385-6191 before submitting anything in writing.
