This Is Not a Government or Law Enforcement Office. This is a private reference site. We cannot confirm that a warrant exists, recall or clear one, post bond, arrange a surrender, or give legal advice to anyone. Each of those needs the issuing court or the sheriff's office directly.
Need Official Warrant Information?
These are the offices that hold Ogemaw County warrant records, and the question each one answers:
- Is a warrant active? The court that issued it controls the answer, and the district court clerk at 989-345-5040 can read the docket for a district case.
- A missed court date or a bench warrant: The court that set the case, which for district matters is the 82nd Judicial District Court in Room 206 of the County Building.
- A felony or circuit matter: The 34th Judicial Circuit Court at 989-345-3560, with records kept by the County Clerk at 989-345-0215.
- Service, custody, or an arrest: The Sheriff's Office at 989-345-3111 or the Correctional Facility at 989-345-5908. Bond can be posted at the courthouse during business hours, or after hours through the jail lobby kiosk or JailATM.
- Child support or family enforcement: The Friend of the Court at 989-345-5520 or the family and probate line at 989-345-0145.
- Clearing a warrant: A licensed Michigan attorney plus the issuing court, which is where a recall, a new date, or a bond decision has to happen.
