Warrant directed to police officer
Full Text
76. Warrant directed to police officer.—A warrant directed to any police officer may also be executed by any other police officer whose name is endorsed upon the warrant by the officer to whom it is directed or endorsed.
Plain English Summary
Permits a police officer to whom a warrant is directed to authorize any other police officer to execute the arrest by endorsing their name on the warrant.
Key Legal Elements
- Delegation of warrant execution
- Mandatory endorsement of name on warrant

Practical Note
This allows for flexibility; if the original officer assigned the warrant is unavailable or busy with another duty, they can formally delegate the execution to a subordinate or colleague through an endorsement.
