A mittimus is a writ or order issued by a court directing a law enforcement officer to take a person into custody and bring them before the court. It is typically used to enforce a court order, such as a judgment or sentence, or to ensure the person's appearance in court for a legal proceeding.
Mittimuses are often used in criminal cases to compel the accused to appear in court for their trial or sentencing. They can also be used in civil cases to enforce judgments or orders for things like payment of debts or compliance with court orders.
Mittimuses are usually issued by a judge or magistrate and are served by law enforcement officers, such as sheriff's deputies or police officers. Failure to comply with a mittimus can result in further legal consequences, such as additional charges or penalties.
Overall, a mittimus is a legal tool that helps ensure the proper administration of justice and the enforcement of court orders.
