Frequently Asked Questions
Quick answers to common questions about payments, reports, patrol requests, visitation, and more.
You can pay securely online through the online payment portal, pay over the phone, mail a check or money order, or pay in person at the Jackson County District Court. For more information, see the Pay Fines page or contact the district court clerk at (870) 523-9555.
Reports are released in accordance with the Arkansas Freedom of Information Act (FOIA); copy fees may apply. To submit a valid FOIA or public records request, please deliver or mail your request to our office or contact us by phone for designated FOIA submission instructions.
Use the Extra Patrol Request form on the Services & Forms page for any non-emergency, ongoing concern or for community events needing security, or contact us by phone.
Visitation is scheduled by housing unit. Call the office for current days and hours. Visitors must present valid photo identification and are subject to a search.
Concealed handgun carry licenses in Arkansas are issued by the Arkansas State Police, not the Sheriff’s Office. Apply through the Arkansas State Police website.
Use the Commend an Employee or General Feedback form on the Services & Forms page, or contact us by phone. Complaints may be submitted anonymously, though contact information helps us follow up.
