Who Issues Warrants in Burley
In Idaho an arrest warrant is signed by a judge. For Burley that means the Cassia County District Court, which hears felonies, civil cases over $10,000 and appeals from the magistrate division; the Magistrate Division, which takes misdemeanors, traffic cases, small claims, probate and divorces, 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 District Court.

How to Check for a Warrant in Burley
Whether a warrant is out from Burley shows in three places:
- The court file of the case, through the Clerk of the District Court at (208) 878-7351, since a warrant is recorded in the case it was issued in.
- ICourt Portal, the Idaho courts' free statewide case search, for a case whose register of actions shows a warrant.
- The Prosecuting Attorney, phone (208) 878-0419, which can say whether charges were filed; a warrant on a complaint follows the filing.
Not one of the Cassia County pages SearchSystems verified (the sheriff's, the court'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 Burley
A warrant is recalled by the court that issued it, so clearing one from Burley starts with the Clerk of the District Court at (208) 878-7351: the case goes back on the calendar and the judge recalls the warrant when the person appears.
A missed date in a case before the Magistrate Division is handled by that court, not by the Cassia County District Court.
A lawyer can often arrange the appearance in advance. The Prosecuting Attorney's page SearchSystems verified is at cassia.gov/prosecuting-attorney, phone (208) 878-0419.
