Who Issues Warrants in Bristol Bay Borough
In Alaska an arrest warrant is signed by a judge.

A bench warrant follows a missed court date in any of those courts. Whichever kind it is, the warrant is part of the file of the case it was issued in, and the clerk of court at each courthouse keeps that file.
