According to the Gallatin County Sheriff's Office, a warrant is a process used to get an individual to appear in court and is usually generated for one of two reasons. A warrant is issued as the result of an investigation in a criminal case; whereas a bench warrant is usually issued by a judge for either failing to appear as promised or failing to pay a fine.

Warrants are classified by the severity of the crime. The classifications are:

• Local Ordinance
• Misdemeanor
• Felony
