Who Issues Warrants in West Haven
In Utah an arrest warrant is signed by a judge. For West Haven that means the District Court for Weber County, which hears felonies, civil cases, divorces, probate and class A misdemeanors; the Justice Courts, which take traffic tickets, class B and C misdemeanors and small claims, issue their own warrants on the cases before them.
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 court keeps that file.
Statewide, MyCase and Xchange are free case lookup for parties through MyCase; the public Xchange search is by subscription.
Who Serves Warrants in West Haven
The Weber County Sheriff's Office and the agencies that report for Ogden, Roy, North Ogden, South Ogden, Pleasant View, Riverdale and one more cities serve warrants in and around West Haven.
The FBI's agency list also places these agencies in Weber County: Weber State University (campus police); Weber Morgan Narcotics Strike Force (other agency); each serves warrants on its own ground.
A warrant issued in Weber County is good anywhere in Utah, so it is served by whichever agency finds the person, in a traffic stop as often as at the door.

Where a Person Arrested on a Warrant from West Haven 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 Weber County Sheriff's Office, held about 770 people on an average day in 2024 by the Vera Institute of Justice's count and has a custody page SearchSystems verified at webercountyutah.gov/sheriff/corrections/booking.php. The West Haven inmate search guide covers the jail in full.
A person arrested in West Haven on a warrant from another county is held at the same jail until that county takes custody.
How to Check for a Warrant in West Haven
Whether a warrant is out from West Haven shows in three places:
- MyCase and Xchange, free case lookup for parties through MyCase; the public Xchange search is by subscription, for a case whose register of actions shows a warrant.
- The County Attorney, which can say whether charges were filed; a warrant on a complaint follows the filing.
- The custody page of the Weber County Sheriff's Office at webercountyutah.gov, which shows people already arrested and booked, not open warrants.
Not one of the Weber County pages SearchSystems verified (the sheriff'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 Utah Bureau of Criminal Identification is not open to the public in Utah, so it is not a route to a warrant check on someone else.
Clearing a Warrant from West Haven
A warrant is recalled by the court that issued it, so clearing one from West Haven starts with the clerk of court: 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 Courts is handled by that court, not by the District Court for Weber County.
A lawyer can often arrange the appearance in advance. The County Attorney's page SearchSystems verified is at webercountyutah.gov/Attorney.
