Who Issues Warrants in Duchesne County
In Utah an arrest warrant is signed by a judge. For Duchesne County that means the District Court for Duchesne 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.

- The County Attorney, phone 435-738-0184, which can say whether charges were filed; a warrant on a complaint follows the filing.
Not one of the Duchesne 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.
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.
