Like in most other areas of VA, Lunenburg County arrest warrant searches have to be conducted in person or by sending in your request through mail. The police and most judicial agencies involved in the task of disseminating crime history information are averse to offering background reports online.

Ideally, when you want to find out about Lunenburg County arrest records and outstanding warrants, it would be most sensible to visit the court that issued the order in connection with which the subject was detained. You not only stand to get information on arrests and warrants from this source, but also you can learn about any other judicial directives that were issued against the subject.

For instance, a criminal summons is frequently used to call in offenders when civilians file a complaint. If this order is disobeyed, an active warrant will follow next. Another type of detention directive that civil courts frequently use is the bench warrant.

These orders call for the arrests of people who have fled the area after getting bail and those found in contempt of court. The county clerk’s office, which is in charge of maintaining the court dockets database, can also offer similar information. The added advantage is that you will also be able to find details on civil cases from them. So, to connect with the police or these judicial entities, you can go to:

  • The police: 160 Courthouse Square, Lunenburg, Virginia 23952
  • The county clerk: 160 Courthouse Square, Lunenburg, VA 23952
  • The court of the magistrate: As above
