Which action is part of the Warrant Verification Process?

• A. Providing dispatch with the suspect's NAME/SSN/DOB to run through the NCIC.
• B. Obtaining a warrant from a judge before any search.
• C. Submitting warrants for approval by a civilian court.
• D. Maintaining a physical file of all warrants at the precinct.

Answer: (A)

The Warrant Verification Process is about confirming active warrants by checking a person’s identity against national records. Providing dispatch with the suspect’s NAME, SSN, and date of birth to run through the NCIC is the essential step here because it allows real-time access to up-to-date warrant information, helping ensure you act on accurate information and avoid misidentification. The other options describe separate steps: obtaining a warrant from a judge is about issuing a warrant, not verifying one; civilian court approval isn’t how warrants are issued; and keeping a physical file is record-keeping, not the live verification step.
