Caswell County NC Warrants Search

The best way to get a criminal records check done in Caswell, NC

I am always happy to give people an easy answer like “go to the cops” to their question on warrant search. But, finding arrest records in Caswell County is hardly a cut and paste job. On the contrary, if you want details on arrest warrants, you will not find it easily from the sheriffs’.

Yes, the police blotter has an arrest log and a warrant list, plus lots of other criminal records. But, the Caswell County Sheriff’s Dept is never too keen on handing this information to the public. I am sorry to add to your misery here; however, I am sure that if you try to get your arrest report online, the information you find will be less than what you can get by approaching the local precinct in person. But, I am going to tell you how to go about the process anyway:

How do I get a warrant check done through the sheriff’s office of Caswell County, NC?

1. Finding outstanding warrants online: I am not saying that you will find an active warrant in the name of your subject through this method. But, you will find information on some of the arrest warrants issued in the area, particularly those that order detention for felonies. While you are at it, you may also find a few arrest mugshots. The best part is that you can rely on the information you get because it comes courtesy of the sheriff’s office on their Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/Caswell-County-Sheriffs-Office-671508399655749/.
2. Taking the warrant check to the sheriff’s office: This option I had discussed earlier. You do things the old school way and talk to the records clerk at the sheriff’s office at 231 County Park Rd, Yanceyville, NC 27379, USA. If the charges have been filed in a specific case, you will find all criminal court records about it.

The advantage of going to the sheriff’s office is that if not with the law enforcement agency, you are likely to find the court docket you need with the clerk’s office, and as luck would have it, both these agencies work out of the same location. I have given you the address above.

Can I do a criminal check in Caswell, NC, through the Clerk of Court’s Office?

 As I have stated, this may often be the better course because this agency has been entrusted with disseminating criminal records among the public. In other words, they are in charge of answering requests about a warrant check. You can visit them in person or write to the agency to seek the arrest report you need.

• A personal visit: Apart from the address above, you can also visit the alternate office of the agency at 139 East Church St, Yanceyville, NC 27379. Both offices have public service terminals that can be used to search through the database of court cases. There is a nominal fee for printouts, but otherwise, you can use the computers without paying for them, and you get access to the same information you would get from an assisted and paid warrant search.
• Mailing in the request: Get a printout of the form at http://www.nccourts.org/Forms/Documents/112.pdf, fill in the required information, and send it with the $25 fee (in a money order or certified check) to the agency at PO Drawer 790, Yanceyville, NC 27379.
