New York State Court Officers Practice Exam

Arrests can be made ____ or _______ a warrant.

1. With or without

2. Only with

3. Before or after

4. By phone or email

The correct answer is: With or without

Arrests can be made with or without a warrant, depending on the specific circumstances and the laws of the jurisdiction. For example, if a police officer witnesses a crime being committed, they can make an arrest without a warrant. However, in other cases, a warrant may be needed for an arrest to be made. Option B is incorrect because it implies that arrests can only be made with a warrant, which is not always the case. Option C is incorrect because it suggests that the timing of a warrant matters in making an arrest, when in reality a warrant is not always necessary. Option D is incorrect because arrests cannot be made by phone or email, as they require physical apprehension by law enforcement officers.
