Sheriff Anthony Wickersham and the Macomb County Friend of the Court have announced a week-long bench warrant “sweep” in an effort to arrest individuals with outstanding warrants for non-payment of child support.
The sheriff’s Friend of the Court Enforcement Unit will devote extra resources to accomplish this endeavor.
The week long sweep will begin Monday, Dec. 4.
Officials said the sweep was announced in advance so that those with outstanding bench warrants could to appear at the Friend of the Court Office and avoid arrest.
Additionally, any individuals who voluntarily appear will be given the opportunity to have their circumstances reviewed to determine if they qualify for a special
program that can help substantially reduce state-owed arrearages.
The Macomb County Friend of the Court Office is located at 10 N. Main St, in Mt. Clemens.
Anyone wishing to provide a tip regarding the whereabouts of an individual with an outstanding FOC bench warrant is encouraged to call 596.469.5756 between the hours of 8:00 a.m. and 4:30 p.m.
