This private reference site is not a government office. It cannot confirm custody, release someone, accept bond, or obtain official booking records. Contact the responsible public office directly for those services.
Where to Direct a Request
For a Monroe County jail or booking question, begin with the Monroe County Sheriff’s Office and identify the person and a narrow date range. The published booking route is option 4 on the main number. The Sheriff’s Office does not publish a verified online booking-record fee schedule or response-time guarantee, so ask the records custodian about the current format, cost, and delivery route.

A later court filing, plea, dismissal, or sentence should be checked with the Clerk of Courts. The public case-search system can lag by at least 24 hours or longer, so the clerk remains the verification route for uncertain docket information.
