NO FCRA USE. This website is privately owned and run. It has no affiliation with any local, state, or federal government body, court, or law enforcement office. Neither this site nor its advertising partners offer services meant for credit checks, employment screening, insurance underwriting, tenant evaluation, or any other use covered by the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA). We exist to help visitors find warrant information and resources for Leelanau County, Michigan. We are not a private investigation firm, and we are not a consumer reporting agency.
1. What This Website Is
This is a private reference site. We run it on our own with no tie to any government office, court, or sheriff's office. We do not hold official warrant records, and we cannot run a warrant check, recall a warrant, post bond, or file a document for anyone.
Our role is to point you toward the offices that hold Leelanau County warrant information. In Michigan that means the 86th District Court, the 13th Judicial Circuit Court and the County Clerk, and the Leelanau County Sheriff's Office, and to connect you with outside tools that may help your research. Michigan has no public statewide warrant search.
2. Informational Use Only
Everything here is general information. We explain how warrants and warrant records tend to work in Leelanau County, but none of it takes the place of an official record check, an order from a court, or advice from a lawyer. Treat it as a starting point, then confirm anything that matters with the court that issued the warrant or the Sheriff's Office that serves it.
3. Not for Screening or Locating People
This site exists to help a person check on and resolve a warrant, their own or a family member's, and to understand how the process works. It is not a tool for investigating other people. You agree not to use this site or any tool linked from it to:
- Screen anyone for employment, housing, tenancy, or credit
- Locate, monitor, track, or target an individual
- Stalk, harass, intimidate, or threaten anyone
- Make a decision the FCRA covers (see below)
4. Rules for Using This Site
You agree that you will not:
- Break any federal, state, or local law while using this site
- Try to break into our systems or reach access you are not meant to have
- Run bots, scrapers, or automated tools against our pages
- Do anything that slows the site down or blocks other readers
5. We Are Not a Consumer Reporting Agency
We are not a consumer reporting agency under the FCRA. We do not produce background checks, credit reports, or any other consumer report. Neither we nor our advertising partners offer services built for screening job applicants, reviewing rental applications, setting insurance rates, or judging creditworthiness. You agree not to use data from this site or a linked tool to:
- Decide whether to hire or fire someone
- Screen a potential renter or housing applicant
- Judge creditworthiness or set insurance premiums
- Determine who qualifies for a license, permit, or government program
- Do anything else that falls under FCRA rules
If you need a background check for any of those purposes, use an FCRA-compliant screening company.
6. No Legal Advice
Nothing here is legal advice. We explain how warrants generally work in Leelanau County, but we cannot say how a warrant, a charge, a bond, or a court date applies to your situation. Talk to a licensed Michigan attorney for that.
7. Accuracy Is Not Guaranteed
Everything on this site is provided "as is." We do not guarantee that:
- The information here is accurate, complete, or current at any given time
- The site will stay up and running without interruptions
- Our pages are free of errors, bugs, or security holes
- Results from partner search tools will be thorough or accurate
Warrants are issued, recalled, and served constantly, so a record can change from one hour to the next and a public page may lag behind. Court records follow the Michigan Court Rules, including MCR 8.119, and county records follow Michigan's Freedom of Information Act, MCL 15.231 to 15.246. Neither one promises that a status shown today is still true tomorrow. Nothing here is an official statement from a court or a sheriff's office, so verify a warrant's status with the issuing court or the Sheriff's Office before you act on it.
8. Third-Party Services and Links
Pages here link to court portals, county offices, legal aid organizations, and outside search services. Clicking one of those links moves you off this site and onto a service we do not control. We are not responsible for its content, how it handles data, what it charges, or whether it stays online. Read its terms before you use it.
9. Intellectual Property

11. Indemnification
You agree to hold us harmless from any claim, legal action, or demand that stems from how you used this site or from breaking these terms. That includes covering our legal fees and related costs.

We can update these terms whenever we see fit. New terms take effect the moment they appear on this page.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can you tell me if I have a warrant?
No. We are a private reference site with no access to any warrant system. You can run a warrant check yourself or contact the court that holds the case.
Can you recall or clear a warrant for me?
No. Only the issuing court can recall or clear a warrant. Talk to an attorney and the issuing court.
Is a warrant listing on a linked tool official?
No. Warrant data on third-party tools may be incomplete or out of date. The official status comes from the court that issued the warrant or the Sheriff's Office that serves it.
