If you think you can get all the information you need for an arrest warrant search in Lawrence County, MS, through social media, you may initially appear to be right. Lawrence County’s sheriff has a Facebook page. Unfortunately, it contains little information on active warrants or arrests in the county. Most of the content covers announcements and recognitions. However, there are listings on crimes and requests for information on unsolved criminal matters, so depending upon when you are searching and what you seek, you may find something about active warrants or arrest records.

One piece of vital information on the Lawrence County sheriff’s Facebook page is their contact information:

Lawrence County Sheriff’s Office

1565 F. E. Sellers Hwy, Monticello, MS 39654.

P. O. Box 816, Monticello, MS 39654

 Fax: 601-587-4740

Other law enforcement agencies in Lawrence County may also help you out with accessing the information on outstanding warrants:

  • Monticello Police Department: (601) 587 7732
  • New Hebron Police Department: (601) 694 2115

The other option for obtaining warrant information is to go to the circuit court in Lawrence County. Mississippi has 22 Circuit Court Districts. Lawrence County is covered by the Fifteenth Judicial District, which also includes Jefferson Davis, Lamar, Marion, and Pearl River counties. While Mississippi has several different courts, each of which handles specific areas, there are only two “courts of general jurisdiction.” Such courts are basically the trial level courts and are known as the chancery and circuit courts. Chancery courts handle mostly domestic and estate matters, while circuit courts handle the other civil matters and all criminal cases.

From 1999 through 2008, close to 1. 1 million crimes were reported in the state of Mississippi. Unfortunately, specific data for Lawrence County, MS, is not readily available, but crime touches all parts of the state. The state’s Administrative Office of Courts has provisions for criminal background checks and statistical information through an online subscription service.

Finding out about arrest warrants is not always a straightforward process. If the information is not readily available, talking to the right person in the right office at the right time is often the key to a successful Lawrence County arrest warrant search.
