Who Issues Warrants in St. Croix County
In Wisconsin an arrest warrant is signed by a judge. For St. Croix County that means the St. Croix County Circuit Court, which hears every civil, criminal, family, probate and juvenile case. A city with a municipal 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 Clerk of Circuit Court.
