Who Issues Warrants in Lebanon
In Oregon an arrest warrant is signed by a judge. For Lebanon that means the Linn County Circuit Court, which hears every civil, criminal, family, probate and juvenile case. A city with a municipal and justice 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 trial court administrator.
For Linn County, SearchSystems opened and checked the court records page for the county at courts.oregon.gov/courts/linn/records/pages/default.aspx (page title: Oregon Judicial Department : Court Records : Court Records : State of Oregon), phone 888-896-4988, 300 SW 4th Ave 1st floor Room 107 PO Box 1749 Albany, OR 97321, which answered when SearchSystems opened it on September 24, 2026.

Who Serves Warrants in Lebanon
The Linn County Sheriff's Office and the agency that reports for Lebanon (filed by the FBI as Lebanon Police Department) serve warrants in and around Lebanon.
The FBI's agency list also places these agencies in Linn County: the Linn County State Police (state police); the Linn County Liquor Commission (state agency); each serves warrants on its own ground.
A warrant issued in Linn County is good anywhere in Oregon, so it is served by whichever agency finds the person, in a traffic stop as often as at the door.
Together, the three agencies in Linn County with all twelve months of 2025 on file reported 1,496 arrests to the FBI that year; arrests on warrants are counted among them, not separately.
Each agency and what it reported is in Lebanon arrest records.
Where a Person Arrested on a Warrant from Lebanon 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 Linn County Sheriff's Office, held about 170 people on an average day in 2023 by the Vera Institute of Justice's count.
A person arrested in Lebanon on a warrant from another county is held at the same jail until that county takes custody.
How to Check for a Warrant in Lebanon
Whether a warrant is out from Lebanon shows in two places:
- The court file of the case, through the trial court administrator at 888-896-4988, since a warrant is recorded in the case it was issued in.
- Oregon eCourt Case Information, the Oregon Judicial Department's online case search, free for basic case information, for a case whose register of actions shows a warrant.
The one Linn County page SearchSystems verified, the court's, is not a list of open warrants.
Clearing a Warrant from Lebanon
A warrant is recalled by the court that issued it, so clearing one from Lebanon starts with the trial court administrator at 888-896-4988: the case goes back on the calendar and the judge recalls the warrant when the person appears.
