This Is Not a Government or Law Enforcement Office. We run a private reference site. We cannot confirm whether a warrant exists, recall or clear a warrant, post bond, arrange a surrender, or give legal advice to anyone. For any of those, contact the clerk, the sheriff's office, or the court that issued the case.
Need Official Warrant Information?
Here is where the questions most people ask in Lincoln Parish actually belong:
- A district criminal or parish traffic case: the Lincoln Parish Clerk of Court, which keeps citations, indictments, arraignments, dispositions, and typed minutes
- A bench warrant for a missed date: the court that set the case, which may be Ruston City Court, a mayor's court, or a ward justice of the peace rather than a parish office
- Enforcement, custody, or a ticket collected through parish channels: the Lincoln Parish Sheriff's Office, which can confirm its own entry after you identify the court
- Resolving or clearing a warrant: a licensed Louisiana attorney and the issuing court, for a recall, a surrender, or bond
Write to the sheriff's records desk at Records Request, P.O. Box 2070, Ruston, LA 71273, or records@lpsheriff.org, and describe the date range, agency, and case or citation reference. The clerk's office sits at 100 West Texas Avenue in Ruston, and its main number is 318-251-5130. The sheriff's non-emergency line is 318-251-5111 at 161 Road Camp Road. For a city matter, Ruston City Court is at 401 North Trenton Street, 318-251-8614, and the city marshal can be reached at 318-255-7788. Ask each office which record it holds before you request it, and never use 911 for a records question.
