Find the Right Mendocino Office
Call 911 for an emergency. For a routine question, choose the contact by function. The Mendocino County Sheriff's Office records line is not a substitute for the county's online Public Records Act request process. Ask for electronic delivery and a cost estimate when requesting copies. Contact details below were checked against the official pages on August 13, 2026, but hours and phone assignments may change.

Fort Bragg posts a weekday lobby schedule with second- and fourth-Friday in-service closures. Willits describes round-the-clock police operations, but that does not establish round-the-clock records-counter service. Confirm access before a trip.

The court says cases are electronic. Public courthouse kiosks may be needed for nonconfidential criminal material that cannot be viewed remotely. Court-record requests use form MMC-900 by mail or in person; telephone requests are not accepted. The court advises allowing 30 days and publishes separate search, copy, and certification fees, so check the live court page first.
Use these paths for the most common needs:
- For a recent county booking, custody status, booking sheet, or releasable booking photograph, begin with the MCSO log and records-request path.
- For a police incident report, contact Ukiah, Fort Bragg, or Willits Police when that city agency created the report.
- For a warrant question, use the official court and sheriff routes described under Sheriff's Most Wanted.
- For a criminal case filing or certified disposition, contact Mendocino Superior Court rather than the jail.
- For a sentenced state prisoner, use the official California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation CIRIS search or CDCR public-records channel.
- For federal prison or immigration custody, use the official Bureau of Prisons Inmate Locator or ICE Online Detainee Locator. Neither is a Mendocino County mugshot archive.
- For an older county booking, submit a focused request through Mendocino County NextRequest with the full name, approximate date, and any booking number.
