If you are adding the warrant through a party record or modifying an existing warrant, the party's name is automatically displayed

For those jurisdictions that issue warrants prior to the existence of a case, there is a need to generate a warrant number for each warrant issued. Your system can be configured to automatically generate system-assigned warrant numbers. If so, System Assigned is displayed in this field, and a Manual override check box is shown to the right. If you have the proper rights, you can select Manual, and enter a bond number in the Warrant # field.

Much like case numbers, your administrator can configure warrant numbers. As with case numbers, your administrator must have the rights to override the system assigned number. This feature does not change how warrant numbers are generated when the warrant is created from a case. The warrant still receives a warrant number that is the case number plus a sequence number if configured.

Depending on your system's setup, a count number may be added to the end of the warrant number to prevent duplicate warrants from being entered.

When you select a warrant type, the default initial status for that type of warrant is inserted on the Status tab of the warrant record.

After an "issued" status is assigned and saved, the warrant type cannot be changed unless you have the right to modify issued warrants.

If you are adding the warrant through a case, the location associated with the case is inserted.

If the selected judge is only associated with one location, that location is inserted.

If you are adding a warrant through a case and a judge is assigned to the case, that judge is automatically displayed.

If the judge is not automatically assigned, indicate which judge signed the warrant you are adding. Enter the appropriate judge code, or click the arrow to view a list of judges. Press F4 to search for and select a judge code.<

After an "issued" status is assigned and saved, the judge cannot be changed unless you have the right to modify issued warrants.
