St. Bernard Parish Warrant Records St. Bernard Parish Warrant Records

This page covers two things: what we can and cannot help with, and where an official warrant question belongs in St. Bernard Parish. A warrant is held by the court that issued it and served by the sheriff, so the request has to reach the right office rather than this site. The routing below sends a records question to the 34th Judicial District Court, the Clerk of Court, the sheriff's records desk, the District Attorney, or a justice of the peace ward, depending on where the order came from. Start with the notice below. Then use the list that matches your situation.

This Is Not a Government or Law Enforcement Office. We run a private reference site, and we are not the Clerk of Court, the sheriff, the district attorney, or any agency. We cannot confirm that a warrant exists, recall or clear one, post bond, arrange a surrender, or give legal advice. Those answers come only from the issuing court, the Clerk of Court, or the sheriff's office that serves the order.

Need Official Warrant Information?

Here is where the most common questions belong in St. Bernard Parish:

  • Whether a warrant exists: start with the court that issued the order, then ask the sheriff's Criminal Records and Reports office to check the agency's own record
  • A bench warrant after a missed date: call the court that set the appearance, because that judge issued the warrant and holds the file
  • A district criminal case: the 34th Judicial District Court sets the charge and bail, and the Clerk of Court keeps the case index
  • A justice of the peace matter: call the ward that issued the order, since wards A through K each have their own judge and constable
  • A citation or a missed promise to appear: use the court named on the citation and ask there about payment, an attachment, or a warrant
  • Resolving or clearing an order: talk with a licensed Louisiana attorney and the issuing court about a recall, a surrender, or bond

For a district court case, the issuing court is the 34th Judicial District Court at 1101 W. St. Bernard Highway, Chalmette, LA 70043. The St. Bernard Parish Clerk of Court holds the case index at PO Box 1746, Chalmette, LA 70044-1746, and the records phone number is 504-271-3434.

St. Bernard Parish Sheriff's Office headquarters is at 2 Courthouse Square, Chalmette, LA 70043, at 504-271-2504. Criminal Records and Reports shares that address and answers at 504-278-7726. The Traffic Division number published on the current sheriff's home page is 504-278-7677, while the department directory lists a different field operations number, so confirm the current line when you call. The sheriff publishes no dedicated warrant counter or warrant phone line, so ask the operator to route the question to the unit that handles warrants from the identified court.

St. Bernard Parish Prison is at 1900 Paris Road, Chalmette, LA 70043, and the number is 504-278-7645. The office does not publish bond-window hours, intake steps, or walk-in surrender instructions, so call before you drive out. The District Attorney is at 1101 W. St. Bernard Highway, Chalmette, and can be reached at 504-271-1658. For a justice of the peace matter, the parish publishes ward-by-ward contacts for the 44th Justice of the Peace Courts. A few ward numbers differ between the parish page and the JP site, so verify the number for the ward before you rely on it.
