Subpoenas & Warrants

Subpoenas

A subpoena is a court order that requires a person to appear in court to give testimony or to present documents and related articles to be produced as evidence at a hearing. A process server or officer will serve a witness personally with a subpoena. The City Attorney may also ask a witness to appear voluntarily without serving a subpoena.

If you have received a subpoena, follow the instructions on it. Failing to follow a subpoena is considered contempt of court and a warrant may be issued for your arrest.

Warrants

If you fail to appear on your court date or comply with the court's orders, the municipal court judge can issue a warrant for your arrest. Once a warrant is issued, if you are stopped by an officer for any reason, the officer will arrest you and take you into custody.

Below is a list of people with outstanding warrants.We realize that there may be many people who have forgotten about their outstanding tickets and encourage them to contact the court clerk to get this matter cleared up before they are arrested.
