§ 120.30 Warrant of arrest; by what courts issuable and in what courts

returnable.

1. A warrant of arrest may be issued only by the local criminal court
or youth part of the superior court with which the underlying accusatory
instrument has been filed, and it may be made returnable in such issuing
court only.

2. The particular local criminal court or courts or youth part of the
superior court with which any particular local criminal court or youth
part of the superior court accusatory instrument may be filed for the
purpose of obtaining a warrant of arrest are determined, generally, by
the provisions of section 100.55 or 100.60 of this title. If, however, a
particular accusatory instrument may pursuant to said section 100.55 be
filed with a particular town court and such town court is not available
at the time such instrument is sought to be filed and a warrant
obtained, such accusatory instrument may be filed with the town court of
any adjoining town of the same county. If such instrument may be filed
pursuant to said section 100.55 with a particular village court and such
village court is not available at the time, it may be filed with the
town court of the town embracing such village, or if such town court is
not available either, with the town court of any adjoining town of the
same county.
