It is the goal of the Warrants Division to enter all Felony, Class "A", Class "B", and some Class "C" warrants as soon as they are received by the Sheriff's office in order to get the information to dispatch for the information to be entered into the TCIC/NCIC system in a timely manner.  We are also responsible for entering Protective orders and the extradition of defendants that have been arrested by other agencies on our charges, and the transportation of Orange County Inmates.
