Who Issues Warrants in Bolingbrook
In Illinois an arrest warrant is signed by a judge. For Bolingbrook that means the Circuit Court of Will County, which hears every civil, criminal, family, probate, traffic and juvenile case.
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 Circuit Clerk.
