Questions about official Covington County criminal records belong with the agency that created or maintains the record. The contacts below separate court files from sheriff reports, jail custody, police incidents, and Alabama criminal-history information. Starting with the right custodian matters because one office cannot certify another agency's file or final disposition. Covington County Criminal History is a private reference site and cannot retrieve, change, certify, or accept a filing for any government record on a visitor's behalf.

This Is Not a Government Office. This private site cannot provide an official record, conduct a background check, correct or remove criminal-history data, or receive an expungement filing.

Need an Official Record?

Use the custodian that matches the Covington County record:

  • Police reports and incident records: ask the sheriff or city police department that created the report
  • Arrest, booking, and jail records: call the Covington County Sheriff's Office or County Jail
  • Court case files: use the criminal court case records route or contact the Circuit Clerk
  • Alabama CHRI and personal record review: apply through ALEA's Criminal Justice Information Services Division
  • Expungement: submit the proper petition in Circuit Court after obtaining the required certified records
  • Registry information: use the Alabama Sex Offender Registry or contact ALEA's registry unit
