Who Issues Warrants in Clark County
In Idaho an arrest warrant is signed by a judge. For Clark County that means the Clark 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.
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 District Court keeps that file.
The court records page SearchSystems verified for the county is at courtdata.idaho.gov/Charge (page title: Idaho Court Case and Charge Data), phone (208) 334-2210, which answered when SearchSystems opened it on September 25, 2026.
