Who Issues Warrants in Fremont
In Nebraska an arrest warrant is signed by a judge. For Fremont that means the Dodge County District Court, which hears felonies, the larger civil cases and divorces; the County Court, which takes misdemeanors, traffic cases, probate, small claims and juvenile matters, issues its own warrants on the cases before it.
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 Clerk of the District Court.
The court records page SearchSystems verified for the county is at nebraskajudicial.gov/courts/dodge-county-court (page title: Dodge County Court | Nebraska Judicial Branch), phone 402-727-2779, 428 North Broad Street Fremont NE 68025, Monday - Friday, 8:00 a.m. - 4:30 p.m., which answered when SearchSystems opened it on September 24, 2026. That page belongs to a lower court, the County Court, not to the Dodge County District Court.

Who Serves Warrants in Fremont

Each agency and what it reported is in Fremont arrest records.
Where a Person Arrested on a Warrant from Fremont Is Held
A person arrested on a warrant and kept in custody goes to the county jail, whichever agency made the arrest. The jail, run by the Dodge County Sheriff's Office, has a custody page SearchSystems verified at dodgecountysheriff.org/jail-population. The Fremont inmate search guide covers the jail in full.
A person arrested in Fremont on a warrant from another county is held at the same jail until that county takes custody.
How to Check for a Warrant in Fremont
Whether a warrant is out from Fremont shows in four places:
- The court file of the case, through the Clerk of the District Court at 402-727-2779, since a warrant is recorded in the case it was issued in.
- Nebraska Trial Court Case Search, the Nebraska Judicial Branch's statewide case search, with a fee per search, for a case whose register of actions shows a warrant.
- The County Attorney, phone (402) 727-2725, which can say whether charges were filed; a warrant on a complaint follows the filing.
- The custody page of the Dodge County Sheriff's Office at dodgecountysheriff.org/jail-population, which shows people already arrested and booked, not open warrants.
Not one of the Dodge 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 Fremont
Only the judge who issued a warrant can recall it. For a case from Fremont that means appearing before the Dodge County District Court or the County Court, with the case put back on the calendar through the Clerk of the District Court.
A missed date in a case before the County Court is handled by that court, not by the Dodge County District Court.
A lawyer can often arrange the appearance in advance. The County Attorney's page SearchSystems verified is at dodgecounty.nebraska.gov/attorney, phone (402) 727-2725.
