Maumelle Warrant Records Overview
Maumelle Police and Warrant Records
The Maumelle Police Department holds the city warrant list. City police serve warrants that come out of the Maumelle District Court for traffic cases, misdemeanor charges, and code violations. A records clerk at the station can run a name check for a caller with a specific question. Phone is the quickest way to confirm if a warrant is on file. Walk-in questions work too, and the front desk takes most requests during regular business hours.
Maumelle sits in Pulaski County along the Arkansas River. The city runs its own police force rather than contracting out. That means city warrant records stay local until a case crosses into Circuit Court. The Police Department address is 550 Edgewood Drive, Maumelle, AR 72113. The main line rings the front desk, and the records side can pull a file within a few minutes.
Typical city warrants include failure to appear on a traffic ticket, unpaid fines, city code violations, and low-level misdemeanors such as disturbing the peace or shoplifting. A bench warrant for a missed court date in Maumelle District Court is the most common type on the active list. Bond amounts are set by the judge and noted in the court file.
Note: Call the Maumelle Police front desk before you drive to the station so staff can pull the right record.
Pulaski County Sheriff Warrant Records
The Pulaski County Sheriff serves county-level warrants that cover Maumelle residents. The Sheriff holds the active list for Circuit Court cases across the county. For Maumelle, most felony warrants run through the Sheriff in Little Rock. Call or check the Pulaski County page for a full list of phone numbers, hours, and in-person options.
The Sheriff does not serve city code warrants. Those stay with Maumelle Police. When a warrant is tied to a Circuit Court case, the Sheriff's Warrants Division is the right desk. The Sheriff also helps with civil process, child support warrants, and capias warrants out of the grand jury.
A records check through the Pulaski County Sheriff usually starts with a phone call to the Warrants Division. A deputy can verify if a name is on the active list and give a case number. Copies of the warrant itself come from the Circuit Clerk, not the Sheriff. Most felony case files are in the same building.
Maumelle Warrant Records on the Case Search
The Arkansas Judiciary Case Search covers both Pulaski County Circuit Court and the Maumelle District Court. The tool is free. Run a name search or a case number search. Warrant entries show up as docket activity on the case. Maumelle residents often find the case search faster than a trip to the station, since the data updates when the clerk logs the filing.
There is also a direct CourtConnect search URL that pulls from the same database. Records from before January 1, 2009 may show redactions online under Administrative Order 19. Help with the system is available from the Administrative Office of the Courts at (501) 410-1900 option 1 or toll free at (866) 823-5778. Copies or certified documents still need to come from the issuing court.
The screenshot below is the Maumelle Police Department home page. It has links to records requests, crime stats, and staff contacts that help when you need to reach the right unit for a warrant question.
You can reach the City of Maumelle page for mailing addresses, public records forms, and the city clerk contact. The site also hosts updates on city council meetings that touch on policing policy.
Note: The online case search shows docket activity, but the warrant itself stays with the Police Department or the Sheriff until served.
State Police Background Check
A full Arkansas State Police criminal history check is a common route for Maumelle residents who need a formal record. The Arkansas State Police Identification Bureau runs the product. Online use goes through the Information Network of Arkansas and requires signed consent from the subject. Mail-in checks cost $25 and use Form 122. The check can pick up warrant history along with arrest and conviction data.
A volunteer check through a non-profit runs $11 under the Criminal History for Volunteers Act. National and FBI fingerprint checks cost more and run through the same bureau. Arkansas Code § 12-12-211 sets out the fingerprint rule. The State Police check is not a pure Maumelle warrant search, but it is the formal statewide record.
FOIA Requests for Maumelle Warrant Records
Maumelle warrant records are public under the Arkansas Freedom of Information Act, Arkansas Code § 25-19-101 et seq. A written FOIA request to the Maumelle Police records desk should name the subject, give a rough date range, and list the type of record. The first hour of search time is free. Copy fees are modest. Certified copies carry a small extra fee.
The Arkansas Attorney General runs a FOIA hotline at 1-800-482-8982 for Arkansas residents. The office can help with form templates and step in when an agency fails to respond within the statutory window. Responses usually come back within three business days. Some items stay sealed under the law, such as ongoing investigation files and juvenile matters.
Arkansas Rules of Criminal Procedure Rule 7.2 lists what each warrant must contain. The data includes the subject's legal name, identifying details, the issuing court, the case number, the offense and statute cited, the warrant type, the bond when set, and the signing judge. That is the information you see on a Maumelle warrant return filed with the Circuit or District Clerk.
ACIC and Maumelle
The Arkansas Crime Information Center is the central state index for warrants. Law enforcement across Maumelle uses ACIC day to day, but the full database is not open to the public. Arkansas Code § 12-12-1008 sets the identification rule before any warrant record can be released. For most public requests the Maumelle Police Department or the Circuit Clerk is the right first stop, not ACIC.
ACIC does offer a $22 name-based criminal record search by appointment. Fingerprint-based searches run $14.25. For a Maumelle resident, a name check at ACIC is one formal route to confirm a clear record. The office sits at 322 South Main Street in Little Rock, not far from the Pulaski County courthouse.
Types of Maumelle Warrant Records
Maumelle warrant records break down into several main types. Each comes from a judge but arises from a different kind of case.
- Arrest warrants on new misdemeanor charges at the District Court
- Bench warrants for failure to appear at a city court date
- Capias warrants issued after a Pulaski County indictment
- Search warrants for property or vehicles
- Child support warrants under Arkansas Code § 9-14-239
- Alias warrants when a prior warrant went unserved
Bench warrants make up most of the city list. They come out of missed Maumelle District Court dates. Some sit on the list for years until the subject is picked up or the judge recalls the order. A motion to recall with a bond payment is the usual fix for an old bench warrant.
Note: A Maumelle Police warrant check does not cover felony Circuit Court warrants from Pulaski County. Ask the Sheriff for those.
Absconder and Inmate Search
The Arkansas Absconder Search is a useful tool when a Maumelle resident has walked away from probation or parole. Most absconders have an active warrant tied to supervision violations. The search filters by name, county, and supervising office. Results show a photo, physical data, the most serious offense, and the date of absconding.
The Arkansas Department of Corrections inmate search is a second tool. Use it to check if a Maumelle warrant has been served and the subject is now in state custody. The Office of Child Support Enforcement handles civil child support warrants under Arkansas Code § 9-14-239. Together these tools help close the loop on a warrant that has already been executed.
Maumelle District Court and Warrant Records
The Maumelle District Court handles traffic cases, city ordinance matters, and lower-level misdemeanors. Bench warrants for failure to appear or unpaid fines come from this court. The District Clerk keeps the case file. Requests for copies of a warrant go through the clerk's office on a signed FOIA request.
Felony cases on Maumelle residents run through the Sixth Judicial Circuit Court in Little Rock. The Pulaski County Circuit Clerk holds the file. When a Circuit Court judge signs an arrest warrant, the Pulaski County Sheriff takes over service. The Arkansas Courts Public Information portal hosts rules, opinions, and forms that explain how warrants are issued and served in Arkansas.
Maumelle is part of the Little Rock metro area. Residents who face a warrant in a nearby city can check other police desks too. A neighboring city with its own page is Little Rock.
Note: Always confirm warrant status by phone before you act on online data. The public case file shows when a judge signs a warrant, but the paper warrant stays with police until served.
