Who Issues Warrants in Glendale
In Missouri an arrest warrant is signed by a judge. For Glendale that means the St. Louis County Circuit Court, which hears every civil, criminal, family, probate and juvenile case, with associate circuit judges taking misdemeanors, traffic and small claims. A city with a municipal divisions of its own issues warrants on the tickets and ordinance cases it tries.
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.

How to Check for a Warrant in Glendale
The places to check for a warrant from Glendale:
- Case.net, the Missouri courts' free statewide case search, for a case whose register of actions shows a warrant.
- The custody page of the sheriff's office at stlouiscountypolice.com, which shows people already arrested and booked, not open warrants.
Not one of the St. Louis County pages SearchSystems verified (the sheriff'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.
Clearing a Warrant from Glendale
A warrant is recalled by the court that issued it, so clearing one from Glendale starts with the Circuit Clerk: the case goes back on the calendar and the judge recalls the warrant when the person appears.
