NO FCRA USE. This website is privately owned and operated. It is not affiliated with any government body, court, or law enforcement office at the local, state, or federal level. Neither this site nor its advertising partners offer anything intended for credit checks, employment screening, insurance underwriting, tenant evaluation, or any other purpose the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) covers. The site exists to help visitors find warrant information and resources in Rice County, Minnesota. We are not a private investigation firm and not a consumer reporting agency.
1. What This Website Is
This is a private reference site. It operates independently and has no ties to any court, sheriff's office, or government agency. It does not store official warrant records and cannot run a warrant check, recall an order, post bond, or file anything on anyone's behalf.
What it does is point readers toward the offices that hold Rice County warrant information, including the district court in Faribault, the Sheriff's Office records desk, and the city police departments, along with third-party tools that may help with research.
2. Informational Use Only
Everything here is general information. The pages explain how warrants and warrant records generally work in Rice County, and that content is not a substitute for an official record check, a court order, or advice from an attorney. Treat it as a starting point, then confirm anything important with the court that issued the order or the Sheriff's Office.
3. Not for Screening or Locating People
This site is meant to help a person check for and resolve a warrant, whether their own or a family member's, and to understand how the process works in Minnesota. It is not a tool for investigating other people. You agree not to use this site or any tool linked from it to:
- Screen anyone for employment, housing, tenancy, or credit
- Track, monitor, locate, or target any individual
- Harass, stalk, threaten, or intimidate anyone
- Make any decision the FCRA covers
4. Rules for Using This Site
You agree that you will not:
- Violate any federal, state, or local law while using this site
- Attempt to break into our systems or reach access you are not authorized to have
- Run bots, scrapers, or automated tools against these pages
- Do anything that degrades the site or blocks other visitors from using it
5. We Are Not a Consumer Reporting Agency
We are not a consumer reporting agency under the FCRA. This site does not produce background checks, credit reports, or consumer reports of any kind. Neither we nor our advertising partners offer services built for screening job applicants, reviewing rental applications, setting insurance rates, or judging creditworthiness. You agree not to use data from this site or any linked tool to:
- Decide whether to hire, promote, or terminate someone
- Screen renters or housing applicants
- Assess creditworthiness or set insurance premiums
- Determine eligibility for licenses, permits, or public programs
- Do anything else that falls under FCRA rules
If you need a background check for one of those purposes, use an FCRA-compliant screening company.
6. No Legal Advice
Nothing on this site is legal advice. The pages explain how warrants generally work in Rice County, and they cannot tell you how a charge, an order, a bond, or a court date applies to your situation. For that, talk to a licensed Minnesota attorney.
7. Accuracy Is Not Guaranteed
Everything on this site is provided "as is." We do not guarantee that:
- The information is accurate, complete, or current at any given moment
- The site will stay available without interruption
- The pages are free of errors, bugs, or security gaps
- Results from a partner search tool will be thorough or accurate
Warrants are issued, served, recalled, and cleared continuously, and the county's public export is a point-in-time file rather than a live feed. A record can change between one hour and the next. Nothing here should be treated as an official statement from any court or sheriff's office. Verify status with the issuing court or the Sheriff's Office before relying on it.
8. Third-Party Services and Links
This site links to court pages, Sheriff's Office pages, state statutes, legal aid organizations, and outside search services. Following one of those links moves you onto a site we do not control. We are not responsible for its content, its data practices, its prices, or its availability. Read its terms before you use it.

11. Indemnification
You agree to hold us harmless from any claim, legal action, or demand that arises from how you used this site or from a breach of these terms. That includes covering our legal fees and related costs.
