Who Issues Warrants in Englewood
In Colorado an arrest warrant is signed by a judge. For Englewood that means the Arapahoe County District Court, which hears felonies, civil cases over $25,000, divorces, probate and juvenile matters; the County Court, which takes misdemeanors, traffic cases and civil cases up to $25,000, issues its own warrants on the cases before it. A city with a municipal court of its own issues warrants on the tickets and ordinance cases it tries.
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 the combined court keeps that file.
Colorado has no single public index of every trial court case; each court's records are looked up through that court.

How to Check for a Warrant in Englewood
The place to check for a warrant from Englewood is the District Attorney, which can say whether charges were filed; a warrant on a complaint follows the filing.
Not one of the Arapahoe County pages SearchSystems verified (the sheriff's and the prosecutor's) is a list of open warrants, so a check means asking the court or the prosecutor about a case by name.
Clearing a Warrant from Englewood
Only the judge who issued a warrant can recall it. For a case from Englewood that means appearing before the Arapahoe County District Court or the County Court, with the case put back on the calendar through the clerk of the combined court.
A missed date in a case before the County Court is handled by that court, not by the Arapahoe County District Court.
A lawyer can often arrange the appearance in advance. The District Attorney's page SearchSystems verified is at arapahoeco.gov.
