Hohenwald Is Lewis County's Only Incorporated City
The 2020 Census counted 3,668 residents in Hohenwald. A 2023 regional community profile identifies it as the only incorporated city in the county and lists Kimmins as unincorporated. That makes Hohenwald City Court the only distinct municipal-court route identified in the research.

Hohenwald Warrant Checks
Hohenwald has no public city warrant search, citation portal, or online court calendar in the city sources reviewed. Begin with the City Court Clerk at 106 North Court Street, (931) 796-3223. The clerk can route a question about a city ordinance, citation, missed date, or court entry. The police page provides contact details but no online warrant lookup.
Have the citation number, court date, and name used on the paper ready. Ask whether the matter is still pending, whether a warrant or FTA is recorded, and what action the judge requires. A phone answer is a route to the record, not an order recalling process.
- Confirm that the paper names the City of Hohenwald or a city ordinance.
- Call the City Court Clerk with the citation or case number.
- Ask whether an FTA, warrant, payment, or next date is entered.
- Ask the clerk which appearance, payment, bond, or motion route applies.
Hohenwald Warrant Checks Begin at the City Court Counter
The official city police page places the department and City Court Clerk at 106 North Court Street. It lists city contact information but no name search, warrant field, payment button, or update time. MTAS also lists the City Court Clerk phone and fax. Use the office line to ask whether a paper belongs to City Court.

The police page identifies the office but does not provide a public warrant roster.
Policing and Courts in Hohenwald
Hohenwald Police enforces city law and works with other agencies. Hohenwald City Court handles city ordinances and city-citation matters, with a separate City Court Clerk at North Court Street. The charter gives the city judge authority to issue necessary process and address contempt in city proceedings.
The city police page and MTAS directory disagree on the City Court Clerk's surname. The office, phone, and address are consistent; contact the office directly rather than relying on a personal name.

Warrants in Hohenwald: The Main Types
Hohenwald City Court's charter supports city-ordinance process and contempt authority. The court and clerk should confirm the exact label on a case, since the city pages do not publish a local warrant-type list. A city citation may also have a separate court date or compliance requirement.
| Warrant Type | How It Arises | Who Issues It |
|---|---|---|
| City ordinance process | Unresolved city-code case or court direction | Hohenwald City Court |
| City traffic citation | Missed appearance or unmet citation terms | Hohenwald City Court |
| FTA / bench process | Missed city-court setting or required appearance | Hohenwald City Court |
| Contempt process | Disobedience of a city-court order | City judge under the charter |
No Hohenwald Online Warrant Portal
The city police page, City Court contact, and municipal directory were reviewed for a warrant search, citation lookup, payment form, and recall process. None was located. There is no published result limit, name field, refresh schedule, or local status legend to describe.
For a current city record, call the clerk. Ask what the court's docket shows and whether the sheriff needs separate notice after a court action.

Hohenwald Warrant Records: What They Show
No Hohenwald sample warrant or public record result was found. The blank Tennessee arrest and CAPIAS/BENCH forms show the kinds of fields that may appear, such as case number, court, charge, bond, initial appearance, and officer return. The city clerk must confirm the content of a city file.
| Case / cause number | Local format not published; use the number printed on the city citation. |
|---|---|
| Named person | Personal values are not republished here; ask the clerk what identifiers are needed. |
| Charge | City ordinance or citation text and any court direction. |
| Issuing court | Hohenwald City Court, with judge or clerk details as recorded. |
| Bond / fine | Case-specific; no city schedule or portal was located. |
| Status | Ask whether the clerk records active, served, paid, recalled, or another state. |
Hohenwald Warrant Process Under the Charter
The city charter gives Hohenwald's judge jurisdiction over city-ordinance cases and authority to issue necessary process, impose authorized penalties and costs, and punish contempt. Those powers explain why a city warrant question begins with City Court rather than a general county records search.

TPRA Requests for Hohenwald Court Records
No Hohenwald police or City Court warrant-records request form was located. A request can ask for an existing city record from the proper custodian; identify the case number or citation, date range, and record type. Ask for an estimate before copies and a written reason for any withheld part.
The Comptroller's TPRA FAQ explains that if prompt production is not practicable, a custodian must within seven business days produce the record, deny it with a basis, or estimate the additional time. Juvenile or sealed material may be restricted.
Accessing Hohenwald Warrant Records
City records follow the Tennessee Public Records Act framework. A Tennessee citizen may request an existing public record, but sealed, juvenile, or otherwise confidential material may be withheld. The city does not have to create a new warrant list or interpret a case.
Key Rules:
Tennessee Public Records Act, T.C.A. §10-7-503: request existing public records from the city custodian.
T.C.A. §37-1-153: juvenile court files are generally confidential.
Sealed court orders or protected investigative material may limit public access.
