Is an arrest warrant required for an arrest in California?

In California, a police officer can arrest you with or without an arrest warrant. If an arrest takes place without an arrest warrant, it is usually because the officer witnessed the crime being committed. Even though the officer may arrest a person without an arrest warrant, he must still take the person before a judge requests that a warrant be issued for the record. If you suspect that an arrest warrant has been issued for your arrest, you should immediately contact an attorney.
