Contacts

This is a private reference site, not a government office. We cannot confirm custody or release, free a person, post bond, or retrieve an official record for you.


Choose the Office That Owns the Record

Custody systems do not share one Monroe County help desk. Contact the office that created the record or now holds the person, and include a full name plus a booking, MDOC, or case number when available.

Monroe County Sheriff and Detention Facility

Use for: a county jail-docket entry, booking or release date, release authority, receiving agency after a transfer, or county booking photograph.

700 N. Meridian St.
P.O. Box 683

The county has not published office hours, a local records fee, or a dedicated records-line number. Call before visiting and ask how to submit a written request.
