Warrants Call-In

Juvenile Warrant Call-In

If You Have a Warrant

• Juveniles who have had warrants issued by the Juvenile Court in Maricopa County may call into the juvenile court and have a warrant hearing set by the next business day.
• Once the child appears in person at the scheduled hearing, the warrant will be quashed. Once the warrant is quashed, it is no longer in effect.
• Until the warrant is quashed in court, the warrant will remain in effect and the child may be apprehended by the police and brought to detention.

If You Call in

• Juveniles who call in and attend their scheduled warrant hearing avoid being locked up in juvenile detention before going to court.
• Instead of being booked into juvenile detention, the juvenile may appear directly in front of the judge without being detained first.
• Once the juvenile appears before the court, the judge will determine whether the child will remain released or be taken into detention.
