Who Issues Warrants in Cass County
In Texas an arrest warrant is signed by a judge. For Cass County that means the Cass County District Court, which hears felonies, divorces, land title cases and civil cases without a dollar limit; the County Courts and Justice Courts 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.
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 District Clerk for district court cases and the County Clerk for county court cases keep that file.

How to Check for a Warrant in Cass County
Whether a warrant is out from Cass County shows in two places:
- The court file of the case, through the District Clerk for district court cases and the County Clerk for county court cases at 903-756-7514, since a warrant is recorded in the case it was issued in.
- The District Attorney, phone 903-756-7541, which can say whether charges were filed; a warrant on a complaint follows the filing.
Not one of the Cass County pages SearchSystems verified (the sheriff's, the court's, the prosecutor'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 Cass County

For a case from Cass County that means appearing before the Cass County District Court or the County Courts and Justice Courts, with the case put back on the calendar through the District Clerk for district court cases and the County Clerk for county court cases.
A missed date in a case before the County Courts and Justice Courts is handled by that court, not by the Cass County District Court.
