Resolving Marion County Warrants

Active warrants in Marion County do not expire. If you have one, act now. Call the court or hire a lawyer. A lawyer may arrange a hearing without an arrest.

For bench warrants, the judge can set a new date. You must show up. The judge may then recall the warrant. For arrest warrants, the path depends on the charges. The Marion County clerk can confirm if a warrant is active but cannot give legal advice. Because Marion County includes Salem and has many law enforcement agencies, the chance of a warrant being discovered during a routine stop is higher than in rural areas. Resolving it early is the safest approach.
