Terms of Use

1. What This Website Is

This site is an independent reference resource, not a Minnesota government service. It does not hold official warrant files and cannot check, change, or resolve an individual warrant, accept bond, or file a court document for you.

Its purpose is to explain where Minnesota court and agency records are kept and how to approach the relevant District Court or county Sheriff’s Office. Public court access is governed separately from government-agency data: the Minnesota Government Data Practices Act applies to government-held data, while the Rules of Public Access to Records of the Minnesota Judicial Branch govern court case files. Classification and access limits apply; this site does not offer a public statewide active-warrant search.

2. Informational Use Only

Site material is general information about Minnesota warrant procedures and records. It is not an official search or court order, and it is not legal advice. Verify a case-specific question with the issuing District Court or the law-enforcement agency that holds the status information. Minnesota court files and agency data have different access rules, and not every record is public online.

3. Not for Screening or Locating People

This site is meant to help a person check for and resolve a warrant - their own or a family member's - and understand how the warrant process works. It is not a tool for investigating other people. You agree that you will not use this site or any tool linked from it to:

• Use it to locate, monitor, target, or track another person
• Screen a person for employment, housing, tenancy, or credit
• Harass, threaten, intimidate, or stalk anyone
• Make a decision governed by the FCRA, as explained below

4. Rules for Using This Site

You agree that you will not:

• Violate a federal, Minnesota, or local law while using the site
• Attempt to enter our systems or data without authorization
• Use automated bots or scraping tools against the pages
• Disrupt site operation or prevent others from accessing it

5. We Are Not a Consumer Reporting Agency

We are not a consumer reporting agency under the FCRA and do not prepare consumer, credit, or background reports. Neither this site nor its advertising partners offer a service for employment, housing, insurance, or credit decisions. You agree not to use information from this site or a linked tool to:

• Make a hiring or employment decision
• Evaluate a rental or housing applicant
• Assess creditworthiness or set an insurance rate
• Decide eligibility for a license, permit, or government benefit
• Use it for any other purpose subject to FCRA requirements

Use an FCRA-compliant screening provider if a background check is needed for a regulated purpose.

6. No Legal Advice

Nothing here is legal advice or a substitute for advice about your circumstances. A Minnesota attorney can explain how a specific warrant, charge, bond, or court date affects you.

7. Accuracy Is Not Guaranteed

Content is provided “as is.” We make no guarantee that:

• Site information is complete, accurate, or current
• Access to the site will be uninterrupted or available at all times
• The pages will be free from errors or security defects
• A partner’s search results will be complete or correct

Warrant records and case status can change, and online sources may be incomplete or fail to reflect a later court or agency update. A public case portal, a court file, and restricted agency warrant data are different records. This site is not an official statement from a Minnesota court or Sheriff’s Office. Confirm a warrant’s current status with the issuing District Court and the agency responsible for the status information.

8. Third-Party Services and Links

Links on this site may lead to Minnesota Judicial Branch resources, county Sheriff’s Office pages, legal-service organizations, or outside search providers. Those services operate independently. We are not responsible for their content, availability, prices, or data practices; review their terms before using them.

9. Intellectual Property

Text, graphics, logos, and code on this site belong to Minnesota Warrant Records or its content partners. Do not copy, redistribute, modify, or reuse them without prior written permission.

10. Limits on Our Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, we are not liable for harm or loss connected with use of this site, including reliance on its content or a linked service.

11. Indemnification

You agree to defend and hold us harmless from claims, proceedings, and expenses arising from your use of the site or violation of these terms, including reasonable legal fees and related costs.

12. Governing Law

Minnesota law governs these terms. A legal dispute arising from your use of the site must be brought in a court located in Minnesota.

13. Changes to These Terms

We may revise these conditions at any time. A change takes effect when the new terms are posted here.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you tell me if I have a warrant?

No. This site does not access a public statewide active-warrant name search. You can review available public case information with our Minnesota warrant search guide or contact the relevant Sheriff’s Office using the county directory.

Can you recall or clear a warrant for me?

No. The issuing court controls its order. Ask a Minnesota attorney and the District Court handling the case about appropriate steps, which may include a court appearance, bond, or a request to modify or recall the order.

Is a warrant listing on a linked tool official?

No. A third-party listing is not an official status confirmation and may be incomplete. Contact the issuing court and the law-enforcement agency responsible for the warrant status.
