Official Clarke County criminal record questions belong with the agency that created or keeps the file. The contacts below route court cases to the Circuit Clerk, sheriff reports to the Sheriff's Department, current custody to the county jail, and personal statewide criminal history review to ALEA.

This Is Not a Government Office. Clarke County Criminal History is privately operated. It cannot retrieve an official record, perform an official check, change a file, or accept an Alabama expungement petition. The record custodian must handle those services.

Need an Official Record?

Use the office tied to the Clarke County record:

  • Circuit and District case files: Clarke County Circuit Clerk, 114 Court Street, P.O. Box 921, Grove Hill, AL 36451; 251-275-3163; Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., closed noon to 1:00 p.m. The county site also lists 251-275-3363.
  • Sheriff reports and served warrants: Clarke County Sheriff's Department, 114 Court Street, P.O. Box 913, Grove Hill, AL 36451; 251-275-4254. Call to confirm the custodian, fee, identification rule, and delivery method.
  • Booking and current custody: Clarke County Jail, 149 Clark Street, P.O. Box 913, Grove Hill, AL 36451; 251-275-8156.
  • Personal statewide criminal history: Alabama Law Enforcement Agency CJIS uses a fingerprint-based Form 46 review process rather than an unrestricted public name search.
  • Police incident reports: contact the police department or law enforcement agency that created the report.
  • Alabama expungement filings: the Circuit Clerk handles court filings; ALEA supplies the certified personal criminal history required for the process.

The sheriff does not publish a separate records-division name, email address, request portal, counter hours, or copy fee. Call 251-275-4254 before visiting or mailing a narrow request.
