New York State Court Officers Practice Exam

Court Officers are authorized to apply for and execute...

1. A Temporary Restraining Order

2. An Administrative Warrant

3. An Immigration Deportation

4. A Bench Warrant

The correct answer is: A Bench Warrant

Court Officers are authorized to apply for and execute a Bench Warrant. This is because Court Officers typically work in state courts, which handle criminal and civil cases. Bench Warrants are issued by a judge in these courts to compel a person to appear in court or to carry out a court order. A Temporary Restraining Order is typically issued by a judge in civil court to prevent someone from taking certain actions. An Administrative Warrant is typically issued by a government agency for administrative purposes, such as conducting a search or seizure. An Immigration Deportation is not under the jurisdiction of state courts, and therefore, Court Officers would not be authorized to execute it.
