This is not a government or law-enforcement office. Bernalillo County Warrant Records cannot confirm a warrant, accept bond, recall process, schedule surrender, or provide legal advice. Use the official court or agency below for the answer that belongs to them.
Metro Court and Records
Bernalillo County Metropolitan Court is the main route for county misdemeanor, DWI, domestic-violence, traffic, and felony-first-appearance matters. Customer Service is listed at 505-841-8151. The courthouse and Records Viewing Room are at 401 Lomas Blvd NW, Albuquerque. Metro’s public-records page lists the Records Viewing Room, email custodian metrrecordscustodian@nmcourts.gov, and letter route.
Metro’s general courthouse hours are listed Monday through Friday, 7:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. Bonding windows use separate schedules. Confirm current hours, security rules, and accepted payment before traveling.
Second District Criminal Division
Felony court records and district criminal process belong with the Second Judicial District. The Criminal Division is listed at 400 Lomas Blvd NW, Room 119, Albuquerque, with 505-841-7444 and 505-841-7542 in official district materials. Use the case number and ask which current clerk route controls the file.

City police records and city court warrant status are not the same request.
Records Request Routes
Metro’s New Mexico Inspection of Public Records Act page asks for a requester name, address, phone, and a reasonably detailed description. It lists inspection, copy, electronic, certified, and CD options. The county public-information page and Albuquerque NextRequest route can receive defined agency requests. Rio Rancho Police maintains a separate records process.
Ask for a date range, unit, record type, and preferred format. Do not request NCIC or other restricted screens, juvenile details, or a person-level roster as a substitute for a court status call.
Federal Questions
The District of New Mexico’s Albuquerque courthouse is at 333 Lomas Blvd NW and lists 505-348-2000. PACER is the federal docket access route. U.S. Marshals District of New Mexico and SWIFT are enforcement contacts, not a county active-warrant database. State Case Lookup cannot certify federal status.
