Maryland Warrant Information

A warrant is a legal document issued by a neutral judicial official when there is evidence of a crime of having been committed. A warrant authorizes a police officer to arrest a person, search his/her property or premises, or seize his/her belongings.

 

Maryland Warrant Types

 

There are primarily four kinds of Maryland warrants: arrest warrants, search warrants, warrants of attachment, and bench warrants.

A Maryland arrest warrant is an order to confine a person.

A Maryland search warrant is an order to search a person, some property, or a particular premise on suspicion of a crime. This search warrant can also used to make arrests if narcotics are found on a person or within the boundaries of the property being searched.

A Maryland attachment warrant authorizes a police officer to seize a defendant’s properties before a judicial trial. Such a warrant is necessitated if there exists a conflict regarding the ownership rights to a property.

A bench warrant is issued when a person does not appear before the court on a scheduled date.

A valid warrant states the name of the person to be arrested or the precise location of the premises to be searched or a detailed description of the possessions of a person that are to be seized.
