Official Records Contacts

This private reference site is not a government office. It cannot confirm custody, release anyone, post bond, or retrieve an official booking record. Contact the responsible public office directly for those services.


Cattaraugus County Record Routes

Use the right office for the record being requested. The Sheriff roster addresses current county-jail custody. A booking or historical agency record may be held by the Sheriff or county custodian. A court outcome belongs with the applicable court clerk. The listed offices can tell a requester which process applies.
