Who Issues Warrants in Everett
In Massachusetts an arrest warrant is signed by a judge. For Everett that means the Middlesex County Superior Court, which hears felonies and civil cases over $50,000; the District Court and Boston Municipal Court, which take misdemeanors, traffic cases, small claims and civil cases up to $50,000, issue their own warrants on the cases before them.
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 Courts keeps that file.

How to Check for a Warrant in Everett
The places to check for a warrant from Everett:
- The court file of the case, through the Clerk of Courts, since a warrant is recorded in the case it was issued in.
- Masscourts.org, the Massachusetts Trial Court's free online case search, for a case whose register of actions shows a warrant.
Not one of the Middlesex County pages SearchSystems verified (the sheriff's and the court'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 Everett
Only the judge who issued a warrant can recall it. For a case from Everett that means appearing before the Middlesex County Superior Court or the District Court and Boston Municipal Court, with the case put back on the calendar through the Clerk of Courts.
A missed date in a case before the District Court and Boston Municipal Court is handled by that court, not by the Middlesex County Superior Court.
