Who Issues Warrants in Avon
In Indiana an arrest warrant is signed by a judge. For Avon that means the Hendricks Circuit and Superior Courts, which hear every civil, criminal, family, probate and juvenile case. A city with a city and town court of its own issues warrants on the tickets and ordinance cases it tries.
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 Circuit Court keeps that file.
The court records page SearchSystems verified for the county is at co.hendricks.in.us/department/index.php?structureid=13 (page title: County Courts | Hendricks County, Indiana), 51 W Main St Danville, IN 46122, which answered when SearchSystems opened it on September 23, 2026. That page belongs to a lower court, not to the Hendricks Circuit and Superior Courts.

How to Check for a Warrant in Avon
The places to check for a warrant from Avon:
- The court file of the case, through the Clerk of the Circuit Court, since a warrant is recorded in the case it was issued in.
- Mycase.IN.gov, the Indiana courts' free statewide case search, for a case whose register of actions shows a warrant.
- The Prosecuting Attorney, phone (317) 745-9283, which can say whether charges were filed; a warrant on a complaint follows the filing.
- The custody page of the Hendricks County Sheriff's Office at avonindiana.gov/QuickLinks.aspx?CID=55, which shows people already arrested and booked, not open warrants.
Not one of the Hendricks 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 Avon
