Millington Court and Police Use Separate Suites
The Justice Center at 7950 Memphis Avenue puts Police in Suite 1 and Court in Suite 2. Police answers for public safety and records; the municipal clerk handles citations, court dates, and warrant questions tied to the city docket. Use the suite number so a court question reaches the right office.
Millington had 10,582 residents in the 2020 Census, fifth among these county city profiles. That figure ranks the pages and does not describe its warrant caseload.
The court page gives the municipal contact and payment options. Check current hours before visiting.
How to Check for a Warrant in Millington
Millington’s nCourt search uses last name and citation number, and its instructions say to remove letters from the number. Allow five days for the citation to appear. If the question is whether a warrant exists, call Municipal Court at 901-873-5850; the official sources did not show a public active-warrant roster.
- Read the city ticket and keep its citation number and due date.
- Wait five days, then search nCourt by last name and citation number after removing letters as directed.
- Call Municipal Court at 901-873-5850 if the search is blank or an appearance is required.
- Ask the clerk whether a city warrant was issued and what action the judge expects.
- Check SCSO for county process; no complete public Tennessee statewide search was found.
Millington Citation Numbers Lose Letters
The city nCourt page tells users to remove letters from citation numbers and allow five days for entry. It also says to pay by midnight before the due date or court date, and to contact the court if a license is suspended. Follow the live page because vendor instructions and deadlines can change.
The blank screen shows the city’s citation fields and number note, not a warrant result.
The Millington Police Department and Municipal Court
Millington Municipal Court is in Suite 2 at 7950 Memphis Avenue and can be reached at 901-873-5850. Police is in Suite 1; its public office number is 901-873-5600 and non-emergency line is 901-872-3333. The court clerk handles the city docket; police dispatch does not decide recall.
Traffic sessions are listed for the first and third Thursday at 5 p.m., except July and December. Call ahead because the posted session schedule is not the clerk’s full service hours.

Millington Court Meets on Selected Thursdays
The city posts traffic court on the first and third Thursday at 5 p.m., with July and December exceptions. A posted hearing block does not prove an individual case is scheduled then. If a date was missed, call the clerk and ask for the next setting and whether a warrant or other process followed.
Police and court office hours differ. Call before making a trip to the shared Justice Center.
Types of Millington Warrants
Millington’s city code describes local court process for ordinance and state-law violations within the city. Traffic tickets and missed court dates may require different action. Ask the clerk whether a citation remains payable or a judge issued a warrant.
| Warrant Type | How It Arises | Who Issues It |
|---|---|---|
| Traffic process | Unpaid ticket or missed Millington date | Millington Municipal Court |
| Ordinance process | Unresolved local-code matter | City judge or clerk under local rules |
| FTA / bench process | Missed municipal setting | Issuing municipal judge |
| Arrest warrant | Judicial process after probable-cause review | Judge or magistrate |
Millington Code Lists Clerk Authority
Ordinance 2017-8 says the clerk maintains court and warrant records and describes local authority for a municipal judge or clerk to issue process for ordinance or state-law violations. It is a dated code source. Do not use its older cost or collection terms as a current fee schedule.
Call the clerk for the current code, payment options, and docket status.
What a Millington Warrant Record Shows
Millington’s public nCourt form is a citation locator, not a full warrant record. Start with the citation number and last name, then ask the clerk whether a separate warrant number, court date, bond, or recall order exists. Keep the payment receipt and court paperwork together.
| Warrant / Cause Number | Use the number printed on the city paper: citation number. |
|---|---|
| Subject Name | Last name is required by the city portal. |
| Charge / Offense | Read the ticket label and ask the clerk for docket details. |
| Issuing Court | Millington Municipal Court for a city case. |
| Bond / Fine Amount | Confirm the present amount and accepted payment with court staff. |
| Status | Ask whether the citation, warrant, or license clearance was updated. |
Millington Payments Do Not Prove Recall
The city lists nCourt, a phone payment route at 901-466-5157, in-person payment, mail, and a drop box. Cash, money order, and card options vary by route, and card convenience costs should be verified. If a license is suspended, the city directs the person to contact the court for clearance.
Payment processing and the court’s warrant docket are separate steps. Retain the receipt and ask the clerk when the case status changes.
Where Millington Warrants Fit With Shelby County
Millington Municipal Court holds city citations and process; SCSO confirms its county-published warrant entries. Tennessee’s public TBI page is curated and there is no single public search for all state warrants. See Shelby County warrant records and county warrant search routes.
Warrant flow: Millington Municipal Court / Police › Shelby County Sheriff for county process › no complete public Tennessee statewide search
Millington Has No Public Warrant Roster
The official-source review found court, police, ordinance, and citation-payment routes, but no public Millington active-warrant roster. Use nCourt for the ticket and call the clerk for a warrant question. A no-match on one screen is not evidence that the court took no action.
Ask which office can provide a written status record and how long a vendor update may take to reach the clerk.
Public Access to Millington Warrant Records
Tennessee’s Public Records Act, T.C.A. § 10-7-503, applies to city records subject to exemptions. Juvenile and sealed files have special access limits. A payment portal is not the official copy of the docket, and a record request should go to the city office that holds the document.
Key Rules:
Tennessee Public Records Act, T.C.A. § 10-7-503 allows access to government records subject to exemptions.
Tennessee Rules of Criminal Procedure govern criminal process and court procedure.
T.C.A. § 37-1-153 restricts access to many juvenile records.
