S'ha canviat l'ordre de preferència entre "ordre d'arrest" i "ordre de detenció". Hi ha una certa confusió entre els termes -no sempre encertada- i com que la figura que més es correspon a "felony warrant" és la "detenció", he modificat la resposta.

Notes to answerer
Miquel Ferré Grau Sense ànim de discutir amb tu perquè tens raó, es diu "crida i cerca"(27.600 entrades), i també "cerca i captura" (18.900 entrades) i "busca i captura" (1.190 entrades". I ja sé que està reconegut pel Diec, és el primer que he dit. Una altra cosa és que l'admisió d'aquest mot pel Diec com a sinònim de "detenció" crea certa confussió perquè el Codi Penal està redactat en Castellà i "arresto" significa una figura ben diferent.


Votes in favor of/against selecting this as the best translation of the term asked
No  Miquel Ferré Grau: Odre de detenció, ordr de cerca i captura, de busca i captura
14 hrs
  -> Miquel, primerament, es diu ordre de crida i cerca, i no és el mateix que una ordre d'arrest/detenció. Aquestes dues són sinònims (ho he posat en la resposta) i arrest s'utilitza perfectament, està reconegut pel Diec.
