Who Issues Warrants in Greeley County
In Nebraska an arrest warrant is signed by a judge. For Greeley County that means the Greeley 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.
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 District Court keeps that file.
For Greeley County, SearchSystems opened and checked the court records page for the county at nebraskajudicial.gov/courts/greeley-county-court (page title: Greeley County Court | Nebraska Judicial Branch), phone 308-428-2705, Monday - Friday, 8:00 a.m. - 4:00 p.m., which answered when SearchSystems opened it on September 24, 2026.
