What are arrest records and arrest warrants?

Arrest records from Nebraska are information collected in connection with criminal matters that have been initiated in the state. This data is not just kept by the local police that make arrests, the judicial agency that has issued active warrants in the name of an accused and the office of the county clerk but also by a central agency in charge of maintaining a database of crime history. Under the Revised Statutes of NE, this authority has been granted to the State Patrol, which has established a separate division for Criminal identification.

It is the responsibility of this agency to supervise the collection of crime history data from all justice ad law enforcement agencies across Nebraska and to handle the dissemination of this information among members of the community and other justice networks. Typically, arrest records from NE will include details such as:

• Arrests from cases that resulted in convictions
• Arrests from cases where the disposition was diverted
• Dispositions pertaining to probations and conditional sentencing
• Acquittals and dismissals
• Incarceration and correctional data
• Sentencing information
• Release and parole details

Under the Freedom of Information Act of the state, civilian applicants are allowed access to their personal background reports as well as third party information. Multiple agencies within the state can be contacted for a warrant search including sheriffs’ departments, county clerk’s offices and courts of the magistrate.

Arrest warrants from Nebraska

“Active warrants” is a term generally used to indicate an order that has been issued by the state judiciary against an accused. Because active warrants are only issued in criminal matters, these orders have to be handled by tribunals that have jurisdiction to hear such cases. Usually, the court of the magistrate will handle the issue of arrest warrants; however, the circuit or district tribunals also have the authority to issue such directives.

Warrants for detention are issued in two scenarios; when an affiant files a complaint with the local tribunal which leads to a preliminary examination or after the return of an indictment. In case of the former, the cops have to go to court with a probable cause affidavit and the magistrate decides if the evidence they have collected is enough to establish probable cause.

In case of an indictment, the grand jury decides on probable cause. The prosecution presents its case in front of the jurors at this point but defense is not invited to the proceedings. If the defendant has not already been arrested at this point, the grand jury returns the indictment at which point the magistrate issues an arrest warrant.

Nebraska arrest warrants are directed at police officers from all parts of the state. Also, because information on all outstanding warrants is sent to the FBI, these orders can be served by law enforcement agents who are connected to justice agencies outside the state as well. Furthermore, these directives are not restricted by time or geography, so cops can pursue a person with a warrant to his name inside any property and at any time of the day or night.
