Checking for a Warrant in Corunna
Corunna is the county seat, so the right counter is usually a short walk away. The work stays the same. Pin down the case first, then ask the court that owns it. The city police department answers for its own investigations, and the courts answer for the orders they issue.
- Call Corunna Police at 989-743-3650 with the report or citation number.
- Ask whether the department requested a charge and what happened to the case afterward.
- Search the file in the state ticket and case search with Shiawassee County and the district court selected.
- Call the court that matches the case: district court for traffic and misdemeanors, circuit clerk for felonies and family matters.
- Ask what the court requires and speak with an attorney before acting on it.
Corunna Warrant Contact Details to Verify
Two numbers circulate for Corunna Police. The city page lists 989-743-3650, while the county agency directory shows 989-743-6170 for the same department at 402 N Shiawassee Street, where the city page also names Chief Stacey Wilburn and the officers on staff. Both lines may reach the department. Try the city's own number first and confirm which is right. The address matches in both places, and emergencies still go to 911.
Corunna Police and Municipal Court
Corunna has a police department but no municipal court of its own. City citations and ordinance matters land in the 66th District Court, which lists jurisdiction over traffic, ordinance, civil infraction, and misdemeanor cases. A felony that moves past the district stage goes to the 35th Circuit Court, and family matters go to the Family Division. For a Corunna resident, that means a short walk and a two-step process. The city department handles the report; the court handles the case. The city can confirm what it investigated, and only the court can speak to the order it issued. A warrant question always ends at the issuing court, never at the police counter, so start there when a bond or a hearing date is what you need from Corunna.

Corunna County Seat and Warrant Files
Because the courthouse sits in Corunna, people often assume the city runs the county's warrant system. It does not. The city police department handles city cases, while the county courts handle cases from every corner of Shiawassee County, including Owosso, Durand, Perry, and Laingsburg. A Corunna resident might need the city department for a local citation and a county office for a case that started elsewhere. Ask which agency filed the report before assuming a Corunna office holds the answer.
Corunna Warrant Types
Three orders cover nearly every Corunna warrant question, and each belongs to a different part of the system.
| Warrant Type | How It Arises | Who Issues It |
|---|---|---|
| Arrest warrant | A Corunna police investigation with a charge authorized by the prosecutor | 66th District Court, or 35th Circuit Court after bind over |
| Bench warrant | A missed court date, including a family show-cause hearing | The judge in the issuing court |
| Traffic or ordinance warrant | An unanswered Corunna citation | 66th District Court |
Note: a Corunna family bench warrant is the one that leaves the criminal track, and the Friend of the Court explains it.
Corunna Court Buildings and Warrant Files
Four addresses cover the county's public counters, and each holds a different record. Knowing which Corunna door to use saves a wasted trip across town.
| 110 E Mack Street | 66th District Court and Probate Court; traffic, ordinance, misdemeanor, and arraignment files |
|---|---|
| 208 N Shiawassee Street | 35th Circuit Court, County Clerk, and Friend of the Court; felony and family files |
| 201 E McArthur Street | Sheriff's Office and jail; service, custody, and the lobby bond kiosk |
| 201 N Shiawassee Street | County administration; FOIA requests for county-held records |
Note: court files and county records in Corunna are separate systems, and a request sent to one will not reach the other.
Checking a Corunna Citation by Case Number
A citation number is the fastest route into the court system for a Corunna case. Use the state ticket search, select Shiawassee County and the district court, then enter the last name with the ticket or case number. Lose the number? The same tool accepts a name with a birth date. What the result tells you is that the case exists. It does not tell you whether a warrant is attached. That question needs the clerk. Call 989-743-2395, read the case number back, and ask directly whether the file carries a failure-to-appear status or a bench warrant. A Corunna citation check ends with that one phone call, not with the search result on the screen.
Inside a Corunna Warrant Record
The case file holds the details of any Corunna warrant record. Gather these fields before calling, because they cut the time a clerk spends searching.
| Case or Citation Number | The court identifier, such as 66D-2025-001508 in a sample layout |
|---|---|
| Party Name | The name on the citation, complaint, or court order |
| Offense or Reason | The cited infraction, charge, or the order that was violated |
| Issuing Court | 66th District Court, 35th Circuit Court, or the Family Division |
| Amount or Bond | Set by the court and confirmed case by case |
| Status | Open, paid, scheduled, failure to appear, or warrant issued |
Corunna Family Bench Warrant Questions
Support and contempt matters run through the Family Division and the Friend of the Court at 208 N Shiawassee Street, a short trip from most of Corunna. Two triggers appear on the enforcement page: missing a judge-signed show-cause hearing, and violating an enforcement order after a jail sentence was suspended on compliance. Staff ask for both parties' full names and the case number. The office can explain how to arrange an appearance before the assigned judge. A 24-hour automated line takes after-hours messages. Email can take up to two business days, so a same-day resolution is not realistic for a Corunna caller.
How Corunna Warrants Fit the County System
A Corunna case follows the same path as any other in the county, with one edge: the courthouse is local. Police investigate or cite. The court issues the order, and a peace officer serves it.
Warrant flow: Corunna Police › 66th District Court or 35th Circuit Court › service by the Sheriff or another peace officer
The wider picture, including state tools, the jail, and records routes, sits in Shiawassee County warrant records. Those pages cover the county steps no Corunna office can complete.
Corunna Warrant Records and Public Access
Public access rules are the same across the county, whether a Corunna record sits at City Hall or in the courthouse. Court files are generally open. Protected identifiers are withheld, and investigation material can stay closed while a case is open.
Key Rules:
Michigan FOIA, MCL 15.233 - A written request can seek a described public record from a city or county office.
Michigan FOIA exemptions, MCL 15.243 - Investigation records may be withheld when release would interfere with a case or invade privacy.
Court records under MCR 1.109 and MCR 8.119 - Public court files still exclude protected personal identifiers.
Confirming a Cleared Corunna Warrant
Payment alone does not end a Corunna warrant matter. Get it in writing. Ask the court for proof that the warrant was recalled, satisfied, or served, and ask when the agency record will catch up. Court rule does direct the court to notify the right agencies once a warrant is satisfied. Still, that update takes time. The court file and the police file in Corunna move on separate schedules, so follow up with the agency that filed the report too. Keep the case number and any receipt, and check back once before calling it closed.
