Fall River, MA asked in Criminal Law for Minnesota

Q: When arrested on misdemeanor warrant in another county, what needs to be done so the issuing county responds

It has been over 48 hours since the arrest and the issuing county has not responded about the defendant incarcerated there on a hold basis, or if they will be transporting him back to be seen by a judge, or if they will just release him. The warrant is in violation to a dismissed HRO and is backdated to June 27th 2021 but was recently issued

A: The arresting county reaches out to the county with a warrant.. it is up to the county with a warrant to make decision on whether they are picking up the individual or if he’ll be cut loose.
