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