McLeod County Warrant Records McLeod County Warrant Records

This page sets out what this site can and cannot help with, and where a question about a McLeod County warrant actually belongs. Read it first. Almost every request belongs with the sheriff's office or with the District Court that issued the warrant, not with us. This site does not hold warrant records, cannot confirm a warrant's status, and cannot clear one. What it can do is point you to the right counter. The list below routes each kind of question, from a jail turn-in to a court file, to the office that holds the answer.

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, reach the sheriff's office or the issuing court directly.

Here is where the questions people ask most often are handled in McLeod County:

  • Whether a warrant is open: call the sheriff's 24-hour dispatch line at 320-864-3134 or 320-484-4397. The county's own jail instructions send warrant questions there.
  • A case, hearing, or release condition: call McLeod County Court Administration at 320-864-1281 or 320-864-1513. Criminal lines split by surname at 320-864-1282 (A-L) and 320-864-1283 (M-Z); traffic lines split at 320-864-1760 (A-L) and 320-864-1761 (M-Z).
  • A traffic or citation fine: use the Minnesota Court Payment Center at 651-281-3219 or 800-657-3611, or call the traffic line that matches the surname.
  • A city citation: contact the city that issued it. Glencoe publishes a municipal court page, Winsted publishes a citations-only payment route, and Hutchinson and Brownton take local questions through their police departments.
  • Resolving or clearing a warrant: talk to a licensed Minnesota attorney and the issuing court about a recall, a voluntary turn-in, or posting bond.

Sheriff records requests must be submitted in writing. The county asks that they not be sent to the general sheriff email address, so use the official records request process instead. Ask for your own warrant information, or for a specific case by number, rather than for a list of names.
