1) The police need a warrant for your DNA to check against the sample they found in the victim's car.

2) The police need a warrant for your DNA to check it against the sample they found in the victim's car.

3) The police need a warrant for your DNA in order to check against the sample they found in the victim's car.

4) The police need a warrant for your DNA in order to check it against the sample they found in the victim's car.

Which are grammatical?

Gratefully,
Navi

At first glance they all appear to be grammatical, but no court that I
know of would give the police a warrant for your DNA. At best, the
police can get a warrant to take a DNA sample.
