Most people believe that the sheriff’s department is the only place to go for an arrest warrant search in Calhoun County, IA. However, this is a faulty assumption since the magistrate’s court, and the county clerk’s department also accept requests for information on outstanding warrants and arrest records.

On their part, the police can also provide details on the annual crime averages for the area and incident trends along with a recent most wanted list, which will usually be pinned to the notice boards around the law enforcement agency’s office. The other two justice entities mentioned above have their own USPs.

For instance, the magistrate’s court seals the deal on all legal directives, meaning that no order from the local tribunals can see the light of the day unless the judge approves their release. So, it is understandable why this department can offer details on outstanding warrants from Calhoun County, bench warrants, summons, and more.

The county clerk’s office is the only agency in the judicial juggernaut that can provide details on arrests and active warrants from Calhoun and civil court dockets. To connect with these agencies, you will have to write to them or visit them in person at:

  • The police: PO Box 304, Rockwell City, Iowa 50579
  • The county clerk: 416 4th Street, Suite 3, Rockwell City, Iowa 50579
  • The court of the magistrate: 416 4th St, Rockwell City, IA 50579
