Bill > A3102

Introduced Session

This bill authorizes the Administrative Office of the Courts to develop and operate an automated system containing outstanding arrest warrant information that is accessible to the public through the official judiciary website. Under the bill, the automated system is required to allow a person to input certain identifying information in order to make an inquiry as to whether the person has an outstanding arrest warrant. If the inquiry reveals that the person has an outstanding arrest warrant, the system is required to provide additional information regarding the pending charge, the law enforcement authority with jurisdiction over the outstanding arrest warrant, and any fines, court appearances, or other information concerning the person's ability to effectuate the recall of the outstanding warrant. In many instances, a person may be unaware of the issuance of an arrest warrant until the person actually is placed under arrest by a law enforcement officer. The purpose of this bill is to allow a person who may be unsure if an arrest warrant has been issued to be notified online, and to take any action necessary to have the warrant recalled.
