Rules for Issuing a Florida Arrest Warrant

An arrest warrant is generally issued by the court to arrest and bring a defendant before it, where the defendant has to furnish answers to the alleged complaint. The defendant is then dealt in accordance to the state law in Florida. In Florida, an arrest warrant is required to arrest an individual for a misdemeanor charge that may be committed in the absence of an officer. An arrest warrant is also required for misdemeanor charges committed by an individual, which include driving under the influence of any controlled substance, liquor or for a domestic assault.

However, according to Florida laws, an arrest warrant is not required for a felony offense that takes place in the presence of a police officer. An arrest warrant is also not required for a felony offense if the police officer has reason to believe that a felony has been committed by the individual or if the arresting officer has evidence to support his belief. Under Florida laws, an arrest warrant is also not required for felony and misdemeanor charges in which individuals have been arrested by the police officer and then brought before a judicial magistrate who sanctions the arrest.

Finding Florida Arrest Records

Florida arrest records are maintained by the Criminal Justice Information Services (CJIS) division of the Florida Department of Law Enforcement (FDLE). These arrest records are filed at various levels of the state such as the sheriff’s offices, the county police departments and the state criminal justice agencies and then forwarded to the state’s central depository.

According to the state laws any arrest in Florida needs to be reported even if the arrests do not result in a conviction. Information for all Florida arrest records are provided to the national agencies such as the United States Department of Justice and the Federal Bureau of Investigation.

Arrest records are considered public records in Florida. Individuals can access arrest records that deal with misdemeanor or felony cases unless these records are sealed or expunged by a court order or a statute. However you still need to use the official request form to access the information available in an arrest record. The official request form is available online. Individuals and authorized agencies can download these forms from the official website of the Florida Department of Law Enforcement (FDLE).
