Official Clay County criminal records must be requested from their government custodian. The Superior Court clerk handles felony case files, while the Clay County Sheriff's Office answers questions about sheriff arrests, bookings, warrants, and inmate information. This privately operated resource cannot retrieve, change, or certify those records. The details below route each request to the appropriate office in Fort Gaines.

This Is Not a Government Office. Clay County Criminal History is privately operated. It cannot obtain official records, conduct government background checks, correct or restrict a record, or accept court filings.

Need an Official Record?

Choose the Clay County or Georgia office that created and maintains the requested record:

  • Felony court files: call the Clay County Superior Court clerk or review the criminal court case record process
  • Incident and police reports: request the report from the law-enforcement agency that created it
  • Georgia criminal histories: follow Georgia Crime Information Center procedures through GBI or a participating local agency
  • Fingerprint processing: use Georgia Applicant Processing Service when an authorized process supplies a service code
  • Record restriction and court sealing: follow the applicable prosecutor, arresting-agency, GCIC, and court route under Georgia law
