In Pleasants County, WVan arrest warrant search can be sought from the local sheriff’s records divisions. This is the branch of the agency which handles the dissemination of crime history data. They receive requests for details on outstanding warrants and arrest records from civilians and other law enforcement agencies.

Although this division stores the bulk of the police’s criminal history data, they do not file the petition to release arrest warrants with local tribunals.
