Who Issues Warrants in DeLand
In Florida an arrest warrant is signed by a judge. For DeLand that means the Volusia County Circuit Court, which hears felonies, civil cases over $50,000, divorces, probate and juvenile matters; the County Court, which takes misdemeanors, traffic cases, small claims and civil cases up to $50,000, issues its own warrants on the cases before it.
When a defendant misses a court date the judge issues a bench warrant, and either kind of warrant lives in the court file of the case, kept by the Clerk of the Circuit Court and Comptroller.
For Volusia County, SearchSystems opened and checked the court records page for the county at clerk.org/Search-Records.aspx (page title: LAURA E. ROTH | Clerk of the Circuit Court, Volusia County Florida), phone (386) 736-5915, which answered when SearchSystems opened it on September 23, 2026.
Florida has no single public index of every trial court case; each court's records are looked up through that court.
Who Serves Warrants in DeLand
The Volusia County Sheriff's Office and the agency that reports for DeLand (filed by the FBI as DeLand Police Department) serve warrants in and around DeLand.
The FBI's agency list also places one other agency, five state agencies and one state police unit in Volusia County (the arrest records guide names each one); each serves warrants on its own ground.
The Flagler Beach Police Department is listed by the FBI across two counties including Volusia County, so its arrests are not broken out for Volusia County here.
The agency that serves a warrant from Volusia County is whichever one finds the person; an Florida warrant is valid across Florida.
Together, the two agencies in Volusia County with all twelve months of 2022 on file reported 1,132 arrests to the FBI that year; arrests on warrants are counted among them, not separately.
Each agency and what it reported is in DeLand arrest records.
Where a Person Arrested on a Warrant from DeLand Is Held
A person arrested on a warrant and kept in custody goes to the county jail, whichever agency made the arrest. The jail, run by the Volusia County Sheriff's Office, held about 1,130 people on an average day so far in 2026 by the Vera Institute of Justice's count and has a custody page SearchSystems verified at volusiamug.vcgov.org/Details.aspx?InmateRID=523629. The DeLand inmate search guide covers the jail in full.
A person arrested in DeLand on a warrant from another county is held at the same jail until that county takes custody.
How to Check for a Warrant in DeLand
Whether a warrant is out from DeLand shows in three places:
- The court file of the case, through the Clerk of the Circuit Court and Comptroller at (386) 736-5915, since a warrant is recorded in the case it was issued in.
- The State Attorney, which can say whether charges were filed; a warrant on a complaint follows the filing.
- The custody page of the Volusia County Sheriff's Office at volusiamug.vcgov.org, which shows people already arrested and booked, not open warrants.
Not one of the Volusia County pages SearchSystems verified (the sheriff's, the court's, the prosecutor's and the records request page) 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 DeLand
Only the judge who issued a warrant can recall it. For a case from DeLand that means appearing before the Volusia County Circuit Court or the County Court, with the case put back on the calendar through the Clerk of the Circuit Court and Comptroller.
A missed date in a case before the County Court is handled by that court, not by the Volusia County Circuit Court.
A lawyer can often arrange the appearance in advance. The State Attorney's page SearchSystems verified is at sao7.com.
