    You have a warrant for her arrest? How do you have a warrant for her arrest? Or there IS a warrant for her arrest for that crime. You can't file warrants.
    FYI, in some states, a private person CAN go before a magistrate and "swear out" an arrest warrant. I am not sure if the OP's state is one of those.

    EDIT: From his reply above, I think it is.

    Not trying to hijack this thread, but if I read this right are you saying that a court can issue a warrant on its own behalf in the absence of a prosecutor? If this is true, is this the case for all types of crimes, or just restraining order violations since they can be considered contempt of court order issues?
    If the court is notified of a violation of probation, through whatever means might be appropriate, the court can issue a warrant for the arrest of the suspect. I HAVE seen warrants issued from Family Court in my state when the court was advised of violations. I was present in one case where the judge actually told me to go find the defendant (at her home) and arrest her! How it might work in the OP's state, I can't say.
