Active Warrants in Teller County
No official Teller County online active warrant search or public warrant list was located in the research materials. That is the key starting point for this page: do not treat the absence of a public list as proof that no warrant exists. Warrant information can sit with Teller County Combined Court, the Teller County Sheriff's Office, Woodland Park Municipal Court, Cripple Creek Municipal Court, a jail roster entry, or another jurisdiction. A third-party warrant website may be stale, incomplete, or wrong, so the official fallback chain matters more than a name search on a private site.
Teller County Combined Court can issue or track state court bench warrants, failures to appear, bond revocations, probation violations, and warrants tied to criminal cases. The court is at 101 West Bennett Avenue, Cripple Creek, CO 80813. The Teller court page routes case questions to 719-689-7360 or tellerclerkgeneral@judicial.state.co.us. The Teller County Sheriff's Office is at 11400 US Highway 24, Divide, CO 80814, non-emergency 719-687-9652, emergency 911. The jail phone line for in-custody information is 719-687-7770.
Municipal courts add another layer. Woodland Park Municipal Court handles city ordinance, municipal traffic, and local criminal violations at 220 W South Ave, Woodland Park, CO 80866, phone 719-687-5207. Cripple Creek Municipal Court handles Cripple Creek municipal code, ordinance, traffic, and criminal violations in City Hall council chambers at 337 East Bennett Avenue, phone 719-689-2502. Cripple Creek warns that its police department also writes citations into Teller County Combined Courts, so a ticket can point to either the municipal court or the state court.
Types of Warrants in Teller County
Different warrant types lead to different records. A criminal arrest warrant may arise after a probable-cause finding. A bench warrant often follows missed court, contempt, nonpayment, failure to comply, or a violation of release conditions. A search warrant authorizes law enforcement to search a person, place, or property and may be sealed during an investigation. A fugitive hold, probation warrant, or federal hold may originate outside the local court file but still affect jail booking or release.
- Arrest warrant - A judge authorizes arrest based on probable cause for a criminal offense.
- Bench warrant - A judge orders arrest for missed court, violation of an order, contempt, nonpayment, or failure to comply.
- Search warrant - A judge authorizes a search; the affidavit or return may be sealed or delayed from public access.
- Fugitive / hold warrant - Another jurisdiction, federal agency, probation office, ICE context, or U.S. Marshals channel may affect custody.
How to Search Teller County Warrants
Because no official public active warrant list was found, use a fallback chain rather than one search box. Start by identifying the issuing court from the citation, summons, bond paperwork, jail record, or case number. If the matter is a state case, contact Teller County Combined Court. If the matter is municipal, contact Woodland Park or Cripple Creek Municipal Court. If the person is already in custody, check the Teller County Detention Center active roster or call the jail with biographical information.
- Read the citation, summons, bond document, or missed-hearing notice to identify Teller County Combined Court, Woodland Park Municipal Court, or Cripple Creek Municipal Court.
- For state/county/district cases, call the Teller Clerk of Court at 719-689-7360 and provide the case number, full name, date of birth, and citation or ticket number if known.
- For Woodland Park municipal matters, call 719-687-5207. Court is generally held the second and fourth Wednesday, with juvenile court the fourth Wednesday.
- For Cripple Creek municipal matters, call 719-689-2502 or email mmykol@cripple-creek.co.us. Court is generally every second Wednesday at 10:00 a.m. unless otherwise stated and weather permits.
- If someone may already be booked, use the Teller active jail roster or call 719-687-7770 with first and last names, aliases, date of birth, and country of birth.
- Ask whether bond is set, whether a personal appearance is required, whether counsel should file a motion to recall or quash, and whether the warrant is still active.
The Colorado Judicial Branch docket search can show clues such as missed hearings, warrant-related events, bond settings, or future court dates, but it is not a comprehensive active-warrant database. The Colorado Judicial Branch record/document request form is the fallback for public court documents that are not visible in the docket search. Sheriff's records, arrest execution records, and jail records may require a separate request or direct jail contact.
Teller County Warrant Search Fields
There was no official Teller warrant-search form with public fields captured in the research. The practical search fields come from the court docket search, jail roster, and phone-request process. Provide enough identifying information for staff to distinguish similar names and find the right court level. A partial name can be insufficient, especially if the issue involves a municipal ticket, a state case, or a warrant from another jurisdiction.
| Field Label | Type | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Full Name | Text | Usually | Use legal name, hyphenated names, aliases, and prior names when asking the court or jail. |
| Date of Birth | Date | Often | The jail page says callers should have biographical details ready, including date of birth. |
| Case Number | Text | Helpful | Use year, case class, and sequence if available from court paperwork or docket search. |
| Citation / Ticket Number | Text | Helpful | Important for traffic and municipal failures to appear. |
| Court Location | Choice | Important | Teller County Combined Court, Woodland Park Municipal Court, or Cripple Creek Municipal Court. |
| Arresting / Holding Agency | Text | Conditional | Useful when a jail roster entry shows a hold, primary offense, or arresting agency. |
What a Teller County Warrant Record Shows
No public Teller warrant-list sample was available, so the field inventory must be framed as an official-record inventory rather than a guaranteed online result. A court or law-enforcement warrant record may show the subject's name, issuing court, case number, warrant type, issue date, offense or reason, bond amount, agency, and current status. In the Teller jail roster, warrant information may appear indirectly through primary offense, arresting agency, charge description, charge type, bond amount, and fine amount.
| Field | What It Shows |
|---|---|
| Subject Name | The person named in the warrant or hold, subject to spelling and alias issues. |
| Case Number | The court case connected to the warrant, if it is tied to a filed case. |
| Issuing Court | Teller County Combined Court, a municipal court, another Colorado court, or a federal court. |
| Warrant Type | Bench, arrest, probation, fugitive, hold, or search warrant category when disclosed. |
| Issue Date | The date the warrant was entered or signed, if public. |
| Charge / Reason | The offense, missed court, nonpayment, probation issue, contempt, or other stated basis. |
| Bond Amount | Any bond set by the court or shown in a jail charge table. |
| Status | Active, recalled, served, quashed, resolved, or held for another agency, depending on custodian language. |
The Teller County bond-rights page explains money-bond rules that can apply after arrest on a warrant or other charge.
Bond details do not prove whether a warrant is active, but they matter once the court or jail confirms custody or release conditions.
What to Do If You Have an Outstanding Warrant
If an official source indicates an outstanding warrant, verify it directly with the court or law-enforcement office before taking action. Ask which court issued the warrant, whether bond is set, whether a personal appearance is required, whether counsel can file a motion before surrender, and whether there is a scheduled hearing. Do not rely on private warrant websites to decide whether to appear, pay, or surrender. If the matter involves criminal charges, probation, domestic violence, protection orders, immigration consequences, or a possible out-of-county hold, legal advice is especially important.
Important: Confirm warrant status with the issuing court or sheriff and consider legal counsel before appearing or surrendering.
Teller County's bond-rights information cites C.R.S. 16-4-102. It says bond fees, booking fees, and debts do not have to be paid to secure release on money bond; the payor need only pay the bond amount. Chargeable debts after release include a $10 bond fee and a maximum 3.5 percent credit-card payment fee if the payor does not choose to pay them at bonding. Bond payments must be made out to the holding county, not the incarcerated person. The research also notes a Genesis eBONDS agreement for surety bonding under House Bill 25-1015.
Tips, Sheriff Records, and Public Requests
The official research did not locate a Teller-specific Crime Stoppers warrant tip program with a public warrant list. For emergencies, call 911. For non-emergency sheriff matters, call the Teller County Sheriff's Office at 719-687-9652. For jail custody information, call 719-687-7770. For county-government public records, Teller County uses the NextRequest CORA portal, but court case files should go through the Colorado Judicial Branch record/document request form or the Teller Clerk of Court. Criminal justice records can be redacted or denied under Colorado's criminal justice records law, especially for active investigations, juveniles, sealed matters, or protected personal information.
Restricted Teller County Warrant Records
Not every warrant or warrant-related document is public. Search warrants and affidavits may be sealed during an investigation. Juvenile warrant information is restricted under Colorado juvenile law and court policy. Federal warrants are handled by federal agencies such as the U.S. Marshals Service District of Colorado, not Teller County. ICE or federal holds may appear in a detention context but have a separate custodian. Sealed criminal cases, protected addresses, victim information, medical information, and personal identifiers may be withheld or redacted. If a warrant is missing from public search tools, contact the issuing court or agency rather than assuming the record does not exist.
