Who Issues Warrants in Teton County
In Wyoming an arrest warrant is signed by a judge. For Teton County that means the District Court for Teton County, which hears felonies, civil cases over $50,000, divorces, probate and juvenile matters; the Circuit Court, which takes misdemeanors, traffic cases, small claims and civil cases up to $50,000, issues its own warrants on the cases before it. 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 Clerk of District Court keeps that file.
