This Is Not a Government or Law Enforcement Office. We run a private reference site. We cannot confirm whether a warrant exists, recall or clear one, post bond, arrange a surrender, or offer legal advice for anyone. Each of those belongs with the issuing court or the sheriff's office.
Need Official Warrant Information?
Most questions people bring to us belong to one of these offices. Start with the one that matches the situation:
- A district court record: the Caldwell Parish Clerk of Court holds the 37th Judicial District Court criminal file, at 318-649-2272, 201 Main Street, Suite 1, Columbia, LA 71418, with mail to P.O. Box 1327, Columbia, LA 71418
- Whether a warrant exists or is active: the Caldwell Parish Sheriff's Office, at 318-649-2345, P.O. Box 60, Columbia, LA 71418, serves parish process and routes booking and bond questions
- A ticket that became a bench warrant: the justice court or mayor's court that set the case, since that court issued the process and still holds it
- Resolving or clearing a warrant: a Louisiana-licensed attorney and the issuing court, through a recall motion, a reset, a surrender, or a bond the court sets
- An arrest warrant tied to a charge: the issuing court sets the charge and the bond, and the sheriff's office carries out service
The lower courts handle their own files and their own hours. Ward 1 contacts are reached at 318-235-9619 and Ward 2 at 318-649-7974. Columbia reaches its town court through 318-649-6174, Clarks through 318-649-7218, and Grayson through 318-267-8500. Ask each office which identification it wants before you visit, because no parish-wide rule is published.
