Calcasieu Parish Warrant Records Calcasieu Parish Warrant Records

This page explains what we can and cannot help with, and where to send questions about official Calcasieu Parish warrants. Most requests belong with the court that issued the warrant or with the office that holds it, not with us, so the routing below points each need to the right place.

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 one, post bond, arrange a surrender, or give legal advice for anyone. For any of those, you need to reach the court that issued the warrant or the Sheriff's Office directly.

Here is where to route the questions most people ask about in Calcasieu Parish:

  • Whether a warrant exists: for a district case, the Calcasieu Parish Clerk of Court, 1000 Ryan Street, Lake Charles, 337-437-3550, is open 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. weekdays; criminal records is 337-437-3558 ext. 165.
  • A bench warrant for a missed court date: contact the court that set the case, such as Lake Charles City Court, 118 West Mill Street, 337-491-1565; Sulphur City Court, 501 Willow Avenue, 337-527-7006; Vinton Municipal Court, 1200 Horridge Street, 337-589-7453; or a ward justice court.
  • Ward 4 service questions: the Ward 4 Marshal keeps a separate line at 337-527-5110 from the court.
  • A district-level case: the 14th Judicial District Court sits at 1001 Lakeshore Drive, Lake Charles, with hours of 8:30 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. and 1:15 to 4:30 p.m.
  • Sheriff-held material: the Calcasieu Parish Sheriff's Office is at 5400 E. Broad Street, Lake Charles, 337-491-3700, and keeps a public-records request page. The main line is not a dedicated warrant line.
  • Resolving a warrant: talk with a licensed Louisiana attorney and the issuing court about a recall, a surrender, or bond.

Staff at these offices cannot give legal advice, so legal questions go to an attorney.
