Wadena County Warrant Records Wadena County Warrant Records

This page explains what we can and cannot help with, and where to send a question about an official Wadena County warrant. Most requests belong with the Sheriff's Office or the court that issued the warrant rather than with us. The routing below sends each kind of question to the office that can actually answer it, with the current address, phone number, and hours for the two main counters.

This Is Not a Government or Law Enforcement Office. Wadena County Warrant Records is a private reference site. We cannot confirm whether a warrant exists, recall or clear one, post bond, arrange a surrender, or give legal advice for anyone. For any of those, contact the Sheriff's Office or the issuing court directly.

Need Official Warrant Information?

Most warrant questions in Wadena County belong to one of four offices. Start with the one that matches what you need, and the answer comes faster.

  • Whether a warrant exists: the Wadena County Sheriff's Office serves warrants and can confirm an outstanding one from a name and date of birth.
  • A warrant on a city citation or a missed court date: Wadena County District Court holds the case file and the warrant entry, and Court Administration answers for it.
  • Resolving or clearing a warrant: a licensed Minnesota attorney and the issuing court handle a recall, a voluntary appearance, or bond.
  • An arrest warrant tied to a charge: the court sets the charge and the bond terms, and a peace officer serves the warrant.

For a court question, the counter is Wadena County Court Administration, 415 Jefferson Street S., Wadena, MN 56482, 218-631-7633. Court Administration keeps the case file, the warrant entries, and the next hearing date, and its office hours are Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.

For a law-enforcement or records question, the Wadena County Sheriff's Office is at 415 S. Jefferson Street, Wadena, MN 56482, 218-631-7600. The Sheriff's Records Office takes written requests at 218-632-6059 and wcso.records@wcmn.us, with the same weekday hours, excluding holidays.

Public case records are also searchable through Minnesota Court Records Online, and citation or case payments run through Minnesota Court Web Payment. Neither portal can clear a warrant on its own, so confirm any change with Court Administration.
