warrant of arrest

Read a random definition: feu charter

A quick definition of warrant of arrest:

A warrant of arrest is a paper that tells a police officer to arrest someone. It is only given if there is a good reason to think the person did something wrong. It is like a permission slip for the police to take someone to court. There are different types of warrants for different situations, like searching for evidence or bringing someone back from another place. It is important that the warrant is written correctly and follows the rules.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: A legal document that authorizes law enforcement officers to arrest and bring a person to court. It is issued only when there is probable cause to believe that the person has committed a crime.

Example: If a police officer has evidence that a person has committed a robbery, they can request a warrant of arrest from a judge. If the judge agrees that there is probable cause, they will issue the warrant, and the police can then arrest the suspect.

This example illustrates how a warrant of arrest is used to ensure that law enforcement officers have a legal basis for arresting someone. It helps to protect individuals from arbitrary arrest and ensures that the legal system operates fairly.
