How to Check for a Warrant in Sugar Grove
Whether a warrant is out from Sugar Grove shows in three places:
- The court file of the case, through the Circuit Clerk, since a warrant is recorded in the case it was issued in.
- The State's Attorney, phone (630) 232-3500, which can say whether charges were filed; a warrant on a complaint follows the filing.
- The custody page of the Kane County Sheriff's Office at kanesheriff.com/Pages/Detainee-Search.aspx, which shows people already arrested and booked, not open warrants.
Not one of the Kane 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.
