Where to Ask for a Martin County Record

For a current Martin County Jail question or a written request for an existing booking record, begin with the Martin County Sheriff’s Office. The office operates through the Dan Saunders Law Enforcement Center, 3522 Interstate 20, Stanton, TX 79782. Mail may be sent to P.O. Box 1127, Stanton, TX 79782. The published phone is 432-756-3336, the fax is 432-607-2992, and regular office hours are 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. The county describes emergency availability as 24 hours a day. No dedicated records-unit email or telephone line is published, so call the office number to confirm the records custodian and the correct delivery route. Use 911 for an emergency.

The right office depends on the question and custody stage. Requests under the Texas Public Information Act must be in writing and should seek existing records from the holder. The Texas Attorney General’s public-information request instructions explain the statewide mechanism.

• For a person now in county custody, start with the official Martin County Jail roster and then call MCSO if a result needs confirmation.
• For a booking photograph or older booking record, use the county records and roster hub, then make a written request to MCSO for the existing record.
• For a case, filing, or disposition, contact the County and District Clerk at 301 N. Saint Peter Street, Stanton, TX 79782, or P.O. Box 906, Stanton, TX 79782, 432-756-3412. Published hours are Monday through Thursday, 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., and Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.
• For fine-only criminal or magistrate matters, use the Justice of the Peace numbers 432-756-3445 or 432-756-3711.
• For a sentenced person in Texas state custody, use the TDCJ Inmate Search, which is not a county booking roster.
• For federal custody or an immigration detention question, use the Bureau of Prisons locator or the ICE detainee locator.
