Jefferson Davis County Warrant Records Jefferson Davis County Warrant Records

This page explains what this site can and cannot help with, and where to send a question about an official Jefferson Davis County warrant. Almost every request belongs with the Clerk of Court, the city court that set the case, or the Sheriff's Office rather than with us. The routing below names the office that holds each kind of record, the number to call, and the questions each counter actually answers. If a situation is in progress, stop reading and call 911 instead.

This Is Not a Government or Law Enforcement Office. This 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 to anyone. For any of those, contact the Clerk of Court, the court that issued the warrant, or the Sheriff's Office directly.

Need Official Warrant Information?

The questions people ask most often about Jefferson Davis County cases route to one of four places. Start with the office that matches the record you need.

  • Whether a warrant exists: contact the court that issued it. A district warrant belongs with the 31st Judicial District Court and its Clerk in Jennings, and a city warrant belongs with the city court named on the citation.
  • A warrant for a missed court date: contact the court that set the case, since that court issued and holds the warrant and is the only office that can recall it.
  • Resolving or clearing a warrant: talk with a licensed Louisiana attorney and the issuing court about a recall, a surrender, or bond.
  • A booking or bond question: call Sheriff's Office detention staff, who can confirm the current amount, charges, and case numbers.

District court records are held by the Jefferson Davis Parish Clerk of Court, Hon. Richard M. Arceneaux, at 300 N State St, Room 106, Jennings LA 70546, by phone at 337-824-1160. Parish law-enforcement and detention questions go to the Jefferson Davis Parish Sheriff's Office, Sheriff Kyle C. Miers, at 1530 US-90, Jennings LA 70546, on the non-emergency line at 337-821-2100.

City matters route differently. Jennings City Court answers at 337-821-5500 Ext. 6, Lake Arthur City Court at 337-774-2211, and Welsh court questions follow the number printed on the citation. For a situation in progress, call 911, not any number on this page.
