Terms of use spell out what a visitor can expect from a website and what the site expects in return. The conditions below cover reading these pages, running a search, and following links off the site, along with the limits on what this reference can do for you. They are written in plain language rather than legal shorthand. Using the site means you accept them. If you do not accept them, stop reading and close the page.

NO FCRA USE. This website is privately owned and operated. It has no affiliation with any local, state, or federal government body, court, or law enforcement office. Neither this site nor its advertising partners offer anything meant for credit checks, hiring decisions, insurance underwriting, tenant evaluation, or any other use covered by the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA). The site exists to help readers find warrant information and resources in Kent County, Michigan. We are not a private investigation firm and not a consumer reporting agency.

1. What This Website Is

This is a private reference site. We operate on our own, with no ties to any government office, court, or sheriff. We do not store official warrant records, and we cannot run a warrant check, recall a warrant, post bond, or file documents for anyone.

What we do is point readers toward the offices that hold Kent County warrant information. That means the 17th Circuit Court, the six district court venues, the Sheriff's Office Information Services and Records Division, the jail's custody and bond window, and Friend of the Court for support matters. We also gather the state's public case search and any third-party tool that may help with research. Michigan has no public statewide warrant database, so the site describes offices rather than a single lookup.

2. Informational Use Only

Everything here is general information. We explain how warrants and warrant records generally work in Kent County, but the content is not a substitute for an official warrant check, an order of a court, or the advice of an attorney. Treat it as a starting point, then confirm anything that matters with the clerk who keeps the file or the sheriff's office that holds it.

Public case search tools are also informational. MiCOURT is an index of case activity, not a warrant list, and a result there does not settle whether a warrant is open, recalled, or still waiting to be served.

3. Not for Screening or Locating People

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

  • Screen anyone for employment, housing, tenancy, or credit
  • Locate, monitor, track, or target an individual
  • Stalk, harass, intimidate, or threaten anyone
  • Make a decision that the FCRA governs, as described below

4. Rules for Using This Site

You agree that you will not:

  • Break any federal, state, or local law while using this site
  • Attempt to break into our systems or reach access you are not meant to have
  • Run bots, scrapers, or automated tools against these pages
  • Do anything that slows the site or blocks other visitors from using it

5. We Are Not a Consumer Reporting Agency

We are not a consumer reporting agency under the FCRA. We do not produce background checks, credit reports, or consumer reports of any kind. Neither we nor our advertising partners offer services built for screening job applicants, reviewing rental applications, setting insurance rates, or judging creditworthiness. You agree not to use information from this site, or from any tool linked here, to:

  • Decide whether to hire or fire someone
  • Screen a renter or a housing applicant
  • Judge creditworthiness or set an insurance premium
  • Decide who qualifies for a license, a permit, or a government program
  • Do anything else that FCRA rules cover

If you need a background check for one of those purposes, use a screening company that complies with the FCRA.

6. No Legal Advice

Nothing on this site is legal advice. We explain how warrants generally work in Kent County, but we cannot tell you how a warrant, a charge, a bond, or a court date applies to your situation. A licensed Michigan attorney can.

7. Accuracy Is Not Guaranteed

Everything on this site is provided as is. We do not guarantee that:

  • The information here is accurate, complete, or current at any given moment
  • The site will stay online without interruptions
  • These pages are free of errors, bugs, or security gaps
  • Results from a partner search tool will be thorough or correct

Warrants are issued, recalled, and served constantly. One can appear, clear, or be served within the same day, and an online record may lag behind what the court file shows. We try to keep up, but gaps are unavoidable. Nothing on this site should be read as an official statement from a court or a sheriff. Verify a warrant's status with the issuing court or the sheriff's office before you rely on it.

8. Third-Party Services and Links

Across this site we link to sheriff's office pages, court portals, the state case search, legal aid organizations, and outside search services. Following one of those links moves you onto a platform we do not control. We are not responsible for its content, its data practices, what it charges, or whether it stays online. Read its terms before you use it.

9. Intellectual Property

All text, graphics, logos, and code on this site belong to Kent County Warrant Records or to our content partners. You may not copy, distribute, modify, or build on our content without written permission first.

10. Limits on Our Liability

To the fullest extent the law allows, we are not liable for damages that arise from using this site, including decisions made on the basis of information found here or through a linked service.

11. Indemnification

You agree to hold us harmless from any claim, legal action, or demand that comes out of how you used this site or out of breaking these terms. That includes covering our legal fees and related costs.

12. Governing Law

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Michigan. Any legal dispute connected to your use of this site must be filed in a court located in Michigan.

13. Changes to These Terms

We may update these terms at any time. A revised version takes effect as soon as it appears on this page.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you tell me whether I have a warrant?

No. This is a private reference site with no access to any warrant system. You can run a warrant lookup yourself, or call the sheriff's records desk or the court that handled the case.

Can you recall or clear a warrant for me?

No. Only the court that issued it can recall or clear a warrant. Speak with an attorney and with the issuing court.

Is a listing on a linked tool official?

No. Warrant information on third-party tools may be incomplete or out of date. Official status comes from the issuing court or the sheriff's office.
