Where can I get information about a warrant?

Page Title

Warrant information can only be given to the person with the warrant after they have appeared in person at the Police Department and shown proper identification. Please be aware, if you have a warrant that is not cite-release* authorized, you may be taken into custody and held until you can post bail or you are released. You may also contact the Records and Warrants Unit of the San Luis Obispo County Sheriff’s Department at (805) 781-4588. Limited information (such as the charges, bail amount, issuing agency, etc.) on adult warrants may be available.

If you are looking for warrant information on someone else, please contact the court in the county where you believe the person in question committed the crime.

*A cite-release on a warrant allows the officer to issue the suspect a citation with a new appearance date which will clear the warrant from the system.
