Checking for a Warrant in Castleberry
Begin with whatever created the record. A citation from a Castleberry municipal matter belongs to the town court. A county traffic or criminal case, though, belongs to Conecuh District or Circuit Court. Before calling either clerk, gather the last name used on the citation, the ticket or case number, date of birth, and the expected court date. Keep those details out of public posts, since they identify you and your case.
- Search the Castleberry portal by ticket number, driver-license number, or date of birth, together with last name.
- Record the located case number, balance, court date, and any direction to contact the court.
- Call the current town clerk route and ask whether the case has an FTA or alias warrant.
- Confirm the court's current address and whether payment, appearance, recall, or bond is required.
- Call the Conecuh County Sheriff at (251) 578-1260 before any surrender or booking attempt.
When the case belongs to Conecuh District or Circuit Court, call Circuit Clerk David F. Jackson at (251) 578-2066 instead. And remember the limits of any online check. A blank portal result does not clear a town or county warrant.
Castleberry Warrant Search Has Three Modes
The Castleberry municipal payment portal is the town's strongest public court interface. Its heading reads "Traffic Citations & Municipal Cases." No login is needed to view the search form. The form posts to a ticket-view route and carries the hidden town value "eta."
| Mode | Required Fields | Use |
|---|---|---|
| Ticket number | Ticket number; last name | Find a known citation directly |
| DL number | Driver-license number; last name | Locate the related municipal ticket |
| Date of birth | MM/DD/YYYY; last name | Search when another number is unavailable |
The driver-license field is only a citation lookup input. It will not produce a driving record. Each of the three routes can help you find the town case, which the clerk can then interpret, but none of them provides a complete public warrant status.
Castleberry Police and Municipal Court
Castleberry Municipal Court controls the town's traffic and ordinance files and makes the court decision on an alias or bench-style warrant. Castleberry police, or another authorized Alabama officer, may serve a city warrant. The Conecuh County Sheriff can help with present enforcement or with surrender routing. Even so, the Sheriff cannot replace the municipal clerk's answer about the underlying town case, so direct your status questions to the court.

The Alabama Secretary of State's Castleberry lookup offers an official government routing page. The town lists no dedicated municipal warrant phone, current court hours, or live warrant roster. Use the current contact route and verify who will answer court-status questions.
No Castleberry Public Warrant Roster
The municipal portal exposes search inputs but no warrant-result layout, no status definitions, no update schedule, no export function, and no completeness warning. Treat it as a Castleberry traffic and municipal case lookup rather than as proof that no city warrant exists, since a case may still require court contact even when it appears online. Note: a blank Castleberry portal search is not warrant clearance; ask the municipal clerk to confirm the court's current record. The town also publishes no outstanding-warrant count, amnesty event, safe-surrender program, city bond schedule, or public recall form. Those gaps call for a phone call, not a guess. Skip third-party lists and old directory pages that claim to know current warrant status without the issuing court, because only that court can confirm what is open.
Castleberry Warrant Types
A Castleberry resident may hear several terms that describe different legal acts. The town's municipal layer covers city traffic and ordinance cases. Alabama's C-65a form is titled "Alias Warrant of Arrest for Failure of Defendant to Appear" after a missed required setting. "Bench warrant" is just the plain-English name people use. A probable-cause arrest warrant tied to another criminal matter may sit with Conecuh District or Circuit Court instead, so match the term to the issuing court.
| Warrant Type | Typical Trigger | First Record Contact |
|---|---|---|
| Town traffic FTA | Missed court duty or unresolved town citation | Castleberry Municipal Court |
| Municipal FTA | Missed setting in a town ordinance case | Castleberry Municipal Court |
| County arrest warrant | Indictment or probable-cause finding | Conecuh Circuit Clerk |
| Search warrant | Probable cause to search for property or evidence | Not a public person-search channel |
Do not assume "capias pro fine" is Castleberry's local form term. It may not be. Give the clerk your case number and ask about FTA or warrant status rather than insisting on a label the clerk may not use.
Castleberry Warrant Visits Need Confirmation
No official page confirms a Castleberry Municipal Court street address, court hours, bond window, or walk-in warrant policy. One Alabama technical source places Castleberry Police Department at 97 Cleveland Avenue, while a separate non-court source has circulated 1738 Cleveland Avenue for Town Hall. Treat neither as a guaranteed municipal warrant counter. Confirm before you drive anywhere.
- Use the official portal or state government routing page to find the current town contact.
- Ask where Municipal Court records are handled and when the clerk is available.
- Confirm whether court, police, bond, and booking functions occur at the same place.
- Do not travel to surrender until the court or Sheriff states the correct receiving location.
Public sources conflict here, so call ahead before any visit. Do not treat either older address lead as certain. Write down the name or office of whoever gives you the current instruction.
Inside a Castleberry Warrant Record
The portal's visible fields are search inputs, not a complete warrant record. Once the clerk confirms a Castleberry warrant, ask for the identifiers and terms that connect it to the court file. Alabama rules describe identity, offense, arrest command, possible release terms, and the officer's execution and return. The town publishes no local warrant-number pattern.
| Ticket or case number | The issued municipal identifier used to locate the file. |
|---|---|
| Subject identity | Name or description stated in the warrant record. |
| Underlying case | Traffic citation, ordinance matter, or missed town setting. |
| Issuing court | Castleberry Municipal Court for a town warrant. |
| Terms | Any appearance, bond, fine, or release condition the court states. |
| Status | Active, served, returned, recalled, quashed, satisfied, or disposed. |
Ask what each status means in the court's own system. "Returned" may only mean service paperwork reached the clerk. "Recalled" means the issuing court withdrew the warrant, and that result should be documented.
Castleberry's 486-Resident Warrant Context
The official 2020 Census incorporated-place table reports 486 residents in Castleberry. That is a census count, not a current estimate. It gives useful scale for the town's municipal channel but says nothing about active cases or warrants. Castleberry publishes no entry in the municipal annual-report material.
Nobody publishes a warrant count for Castleberry, and a number guessed from the town's size would be worthless anyway. Skip it. For a real answer on one case, use the three search modes and then confirm directly with the clerk. That beats any broad tally.
How Castleberry Warrants Fit the County System
Town traffic and ordinance cases belong to Castleberry Municipal Court. The Conecuh Circuit Clerk keeps District and Circuit records instead. The Sheriff enforces warrants countywide, runs the jail, and handles bond routing. Alabama posts no public statewide warrant repository, and the ALEA Community Information form only searches fugitives, not Castleberry warrants. The Conecuh County warrant records overview covers the broader route.
Warrant flow: Castleberry Municipal Court / Police → Conecuh County Sheriff when involved → limited state law-enforcement systems.
Don't send a county ticket through the Castleberry portal, and don't assume a Castleberry citation sits in the county docket. Read the issuing-agency line on the citation. Then call the court named there first.
When Castleberry Warrant Results Are Unclear
A portal hit can find the ticket yet still leave the warrant question open. Jot down the case number and court date. Then ask the clerk whether the matter is paid, pending, set for court, in failure-to-appear status, or under an alias warrant. Ask if the judge wants an appearance or a motion, and whether payment alone is allowed.
- Failure to appear
- Missing a required court setting or instruction.
- Alias warrant
- Alabama's official form title for an arrest warrant after nonappearance.
- Recall
- The issuing court withdraws its warrant.
- Bond
- Financial or conditional security for release and future appearance.
A blank result proves little. Check the spelling and the search mode, then call. If the Castleberry record still doesn't surface, ask whether the case moved or belongs to Conecuh District Court. Keep whatever the clerk writes back, along with any new setting.
Castleberry Warrant Records and Public Access
Alabama lets residents inspect and copy public writings unless another law carves out an exception. In Castleberry, court access also bends to court rules, sealing orders, juvenile and youthful-offender protections, and case-specific limits. Ask for one case, warrant, or return at a time. That works far better than demanding a townwide export no office is set up to produce.
Key Rules:
Alabama public-records law, Code §36-12-40 creates a right to inspect and copy public writings subject to exceptions.
Code §36-12-45 allows covered agencies to set request procedures, forms, delivery methods, and fees.
Code §15-19-7 generally protects youthful-offender records and identifying materials from public inspection.
Castleberry publishes no warrant request form, certified-copy fee, or electronic delivery rule, and it sets no response time. Ask the municipal custodian for the current process and the reason for any redaction or denial.
Castleberry Warrant Payment Is Not Recall
The town portal exists for traffic citations and municipal cases, but a payment screen doesn't prove a judge recalled the FTA warrant. Clearing it in Castleberry can take payment, a new setting, a motion to recall, an appearance, or bond. Which step fits depends on the court's live record and the underlying case.
- Confirm the case and warrant with the Castleberry municipal clerk.
- Ask which payment, appearance, recall, or bond route the court accepts.
- Complete that route and keep a receipt, filed motion, or written new setting.
- Ask the clerk to confirm the warrant's updated status after processing.
Warning: Do not assume online payment instantly recalls a Castleberry warrant or ends the underlying municipal case.
Before you surrender, call the Sheriff and ask where intake happens and how bond works there. The town publishes no confirmed receiving location or hours. A lawyer can shape the strategy and contact the court, and the clerk can walk you through the paperwork.
