Who Issues Warrants in Noxubee County
In Mississippi an arrest warrant is signed by a judge. For Noxubee County that means the Noxubee County Circuit Court, which hears felonies and the larger civil cases; the Justice Court and County Court issue their own warrants on the cases before them. A city with a municipal court 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 for criminal and civil cases and the Chancery Clerk for divorces, estates and land records.

How to Check for a Warrant in Noxubee County
The places to check for a warrant from Noxubee County:
- The court file of the case, through the Circuit Clerk for criminal and civil cases and the Chancery Clerk for divorces, estates and land records at 662-456-2513, since a warrant is recorded in the case it was issued in.
- The District Attorney, phone 662-329-5911, which can say whether charges were filed; a warrant on a complaint follows the filing.
Not one of the Noxubee 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.
The statewide criminal history kept by the Mississippi Department of Public Safety Criminal Information Center is not open to the public in Mississippi, so it is not a route to a warrant check on someone else.
Clearing a Warrant from Noxubee County
A warrant is recalled by the court that issued it, so clearing one from Noxubee County starts with the Circuit Clerk for criminal and civil cases and the Chancery Clerk for divorces, estates and land records at 662-456-2513: the case goes back on the calendar and the judge recalls the warrant when the person appears.
A missed date in a case before the Justice Court and County Court is handled by that court, not by the Noxubee County Circuit Court.
A lawyer can often arrange the appearance in advance. The District Attorney's page SearchSystems verified is at msda16.org, phone 662-329-5911.
