Who Issues Warrants in Conejos County
In Colorado an arrest warrant is signed by a judge. For Conejos County that means the Conejos 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.
