As a general rule of thumb, yes, the court for one county can serve the warrant for the other and arrest you (to allow the transfer).

Under current Arkansas law, if I believed that someone were attempting to steal my vehicle which is parked under my carport at my home, would the use of deadly force be justified?
answered on Jul 7, 2019
No, because you believe they are attempting to steal the vehicle. If you reasonably believe force is necessary to prevent death or great bodily harm, then, you are in a MUCH better position. The carport is likely considered curtilage (basically, an extension of the home) but the main issue is... Read more »
