This Is Not a Government or Law-Enforcement Office. We cannot confirm a warrant, accept payment, post bond, arrange surrender, change a court order, or give legal advice. For those matters, contact MNPD, the issuing court, the responsible clerk, or a Tennessee attorney directly.
Need Official Warrant Information?
Choose the office that matches the record. A call for routing is not always a way to obtain a warrant result.
- MNPD criminal warrant status: Criminal Warrants Division, 440 3rd Avenue North, Nashville. A person seeking status must appear in person with photo ID; the division does not give warrant information by phone. Its page lists 615-862-8600 if no one is in the office and 615-862-7685 for division information. Published hours conflict, so verify before traveling.
- Criminal case and bond records: Criminal Court Clerk, Justice A.A. Birch Building, 408 2nd Avenue North, Suite 2120, Nashville, TN 37201; 615-862-5601. The State Warrant and Bond Office is listed at 440 3rd Avenue North, 615-862-5670. Confirm the current address because older pages show a former location.

General Sessions criminal and Set Aside information is available through the Criminal Court Clerk at 615-862-5601. The Public Defender’s Office is 615-862-5730; the District Attorney’s Office is 615-862-5500. A clerk can explain record procedure but does not give legal advice.
For a city ordinance or traffic case, use the court named on the citation. Goodlettsville, Forest Hills, Oak Hill, and Belle Meade publish separate municipal-court routes; Nashville ordinance matters use Metro General Sessions structures.
