What is an Arrest Warrant?

  1. A Document to Attend Court Voluntarily

  2. A Document Allowing Release on Bail

  3. An Order for Immediate Release

  4. Issued for Someone's Arrest and Court Appearance

The correct answer is: Issued for Someone's Arrest and Court Appearance

An arrest warrant is a document issued by a judge or magistrate authorizing the arrest and detention of an individual. It is issued when there is probable cause to believe that a crime has been committed and that the individual named in the warrant committed the crime. The purpose of an arrest warrant is to ensure that the person named in the warrant is brought before the court to answer for the alleged crime. Therefore, the correct answer is D: Issued for Someone's Arrest and Court Appearance. Options A, B, and C are incorrect because they do not accurately describe the purpose or function of an arrest warrant.
