How to Check for a Warrant in Davis
Read the citation first. Confirm Davis Municipal Court is the issuing court before you call anyone. The city lists the clerk at (580) 369-3333, working at City Hall, 227 E Main St. A county district case runs the other way: check OSCN or ODCR for context, then phone the Murray County Court Clerk.
- Find the citation or case number and appearance date.
- Call the Davis clerk and ask whether the matter is payable, set for court, or marked FTA.
- Ask whether a warrant issued and what the judge requires.
- Use Davis police or the county sheriff only for the service or custody route.
- Keep the payment receipt, clerk instruction, and later court confirmation.
Davis Has the Clearest Published Municipal Route
Davis stands out among Murray County cities for its detailed official municipal court page. It names the judge and clerk, lists the Thursday court, and covers the clerk counter, payment options, the online and phone vendor route, and after-hours bond direction. Useful as that is for Davis, it describes one city court, not a countywide template. The 2020 Census put the population at 2,823, but a headcount never decides which court holds a citation. The citation and court name do.
The Davis Police Department and Municipal Court
Davis Municipal Court handles traffic citations, city ordinance violations, and other local matters, with Judge Hon. Bill Chaffin listed by the city. The Davis Police Department sits at 227 E Main; call 911 for emergencies or (580) 369-2323 otherwise. The city publishes no public Davis warrant portal.
Ask the clerk, not a general search page, to confirm the court action.
The Davis police page provides the city contact route without a private roster.
The non-emergency line can help route a question, while the court clerk controls the municipal record.
Thursday Court at 308 S 3rd Street
Davis Municipal Court convenes on Thursdays in the City Council Chambers/Municipal Courtroom at 308 S 3rd St. The official page points to a west entrance by the porch near play equipment. Clerk transactions happen at City Hall, 227 E Main, not at the courtroom counter. Call before you appear. Ask whether a missed setting needs a new date, motion, attorney entry, payment, bond, or judge review. The courtroom and the clerk counter are simply separate stops on the local route.
Types of Davis Warrants
A Davis resident might face a traffic warrant, ordinance process, or a municipal failure to appear. A district arrest warrant is a different, county-level matter entirely. The court printed on the citation tells you which number to dial first.
| Type | How it arises | First office |
|---|---|---|
| Traffic warrant | Unresolved citation or missed traffic date | Davis Municipal Court |
| Ordinance matter | Unresolved city-code case | Davis municipal clerk |
| City FTA or bench warrant | Missed Thursday setting | Davis judge or clerk |
| District arrest warrant | County criminal case | Murray County Court Clerk |
The Davis Clerk Counter Is at 227 E Main
Clerk Jill Exum works the City Hall utility payment counter at 227 E Main St. The counter is open Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., excluding holidays. The published contact points are (580) 369-3333 and courtclerk@davisok.city. Bring the citation, case or citation number, payment details, and contact information. Ask whether the clerk can take payment or whether the judge must address a failure to appear first.
What a Davis Warrant Record Shows
The city may use a citation or municipal case number rather than a district case number. A public entry can hide the full form or the current service status. Match the city, citation, and appearance date before trusting any result.
| Municipality | Davis Municipal Court. |
|---|---|
| Citation number | Local identifier, such as DAV-YYYY-#####. |
| Violation | Traffic or ordinance matter named by the court. |
| Appearance date | Thursday setting or missed court date. |
| Payment or bond | Current clerk or judge instruction, not a generic county amount. |
| Status | Payable, court required, FTA, recalled, or later entry. |
Jill Exum's Clerk Contact for a Davis Citation
The clerk's published contact gives Davis callers a clear first move. Ask whether the court will explain the current record by phone, whether payment is accepted, and what proof shows the court action actually changed. A vendor receipt alone does not recall a warrant. The Davis court page supplies the local instructions. Keep the clerk's name, your call date, the receipt, and any later order or docket confirmation.
Where Davis Warrants Fit With Murray County
A Davis municipal court or police question stays at the city level unless it moves into a county custody or service route. A district case belongs to the Murray County Court Clerk. The sheriff cannot override the municipal judge.
Warrant flow: Davis Municipal Court and Police › Murray County Sheriff for service or after-hours custody › court-confirmed action. For the larger county path, use the Murray County warrant records overview and the traffic warrant route.
Four Davis Payment Channels, One Need for Confirmation
Davis lists four payment channels. Pay in person with cash, money order, or cashier's check; mail a signed and dated citation with payment details; pay online through EZTicketPay; or call (918) 794-0823. Pick Davis Municipal Court on the vendor site and enter the ticket information. Paying is not the same as a confirmed warrant recall. Ask the clerk whether the date, failure to appear, or warrant still needs a judge action after payment. The city publishes no Davis warrant-lift timing or fee schedule.
EZTicketPay Municipality Selection
EZTicketPay is the payment interface the Davis court page links to. Its one useful local detail is the municipality selection. Choose Davis Municipal Court, enter the ticket data, and the payment routes correctly. The vendor does not return warrant status or a full citation search, though. Save the confirmation number. Show it to the clerk if asked, since only the clerk can say whether payment satisfies the court action.
Public Access to Davis Warrant Records
The Oklahoma Open Records Act covers Davis records, subject to exceptions. Sealed, juvenile, investigatory, protected, or law-enforcement material may be limited. Request a defined city record from the clerk and ask about redaction reasons and a fee estimate.
Davis access: Use the Oklahoma Open Records Act framework. A missing public page is not proof that no municipal process exists.
Rule 2.6 warns that Davis warrant documents can carry full identifiers even when they are not viewable online. Do not republish them.
After-Hours Bond Direction to Sulphur
After hours, the Davis page sends bond questions to the Murray County Sheriff's Office at 700 W 10th St., Sulphur. No single bond amount applies to every Davis warrant. Hours, payment forms, and other rules are not spelled out. Ask before you drive. The sheriff can explain the custody or bond route, but the Davis judge and clerk still control the municipal case and any warrant action.
