A Tennessee Civil Warrant is a legal document issued by a court in the state of Tennessee that orders an individual or business to appear in court for a civil lawsuit. Civil Warrants are issued in specific circumstances, such as when an individual or business is being sued, or if they are required to appear and testify in a civil case. There are two main types of Tennessee Civil Warrant: a Summons and a Capital. A Summons orders an individual or business to appear in court in response to an action or lawsuit brought against them. A Capital is an arrest warrant that orders the immediate arrest of an individual or business that has failed to appear in court after being served with a Summons.
