Warrants help law enforcement personnel to execute certain actions, mainly arrests, searches, and seizures. Under Arizona law, judges and magistrates can issue these warrants, or written orders ("writs") upon a law enforcement complaint/affidavit and a finding of probable cause for the facts or grounds stated in the complaint/affidavit.
