Used at these steps
What it is for
Gives the police details that help them find the person named in a warrant of committal, such as a description and where they may be. Filing it does not start anything by itself.
Who uses it
The creditor, after a judge has ordered the debtor jailed for a contempt of court.
When to use it
Only after the court orders a committal (jail of not more than five days) at a contempt hearing. The creditor may file it with the clerk (Rule 20.11(8)(a)).
What you need
Tick each one off as you gather it. Nothing here is saved.
Tips
- It is optional. The clerk can issue the warrant without it.
- Give only facts you know. Do not guess.
- The police decide whether and when to act. Nothing here promises an arrest.
