Question 4

How do I look up an arrest in Maricopa?

Accepted Answer

Maricopa arrests sit with whichever agency made the booking. **Order of speed**: (1) **Maricopa County Sheriff's Office (MCSO) Inmate Locator** at https://www.mcso.org or 602-876-1011 — current inmates across the 9,000-bed jail system (4th Avenue, Lower Buckeye, Towers, Estrella, Durango). Updated continuously; searchable by name. Non-emergency line 602-876-4636. (2) **City police arrest logs** for arrests inside city limits: Phoenix PD Adult Arrests Dashboard https://www.phoenix.gov/administration/departments/police/crime-stats-data/crime-stats-maps.html/published/8g516L4Wc; Mesa PD, Scottsdale PD, Tempe PD, Glendale PD, Chandler PD, Peoria PD, Surprise PD all maintain blotters. (3) **Court filings** for any arrest that produced a charge: Maricopa County Superior Court https://www.superiorcourt.maricopa.gov/docket/index.asp; Justice Courts https://justicecourts.maricopa.gov/app/courtrecords/casesearch. (4) **Older arrests / closed cases**: written records request to MCSO Records Division (550 W Jackson St, Phoenix, 602-876-1801) under A.R.S. § 39-121, copy fees apply. (5) **State prison**: Arizona DOC inmate search https://corrections.az.gov/inmate-data-search.

Question 5

Where can I access police reports regarding false complaints that I damaged a house?

Accepted Answer

Phoenix Police incident reports are public under **A.R.S. § 39-121**. Two paths to request a copy of a report involving a complaint that you damaged a house: (1) **Online via the Phoenix Public Safety records portal** at https://phxpublicsafety.phoenix.gov — submit the request, pay by credit card. **Fees** (current): Incident Report **$5.00** flat fee (some sources cite $0.24/page; the $5 flat is the Public Records Bureau's official quote). Body-cam audio/video $4.00 per file, photographs $4.00. Turnaround typically 7–10 business days. (2) **In person or mail** to **Phoenix Police Public Records & Services Bureau**, 1717 E Grant St, Phoenix AZ 85034 (https://www.phoenix.gov/administration/departments/police/crime-stats-data/public-records-crime-stats.html). **Important when the complaint is false or has gone to court**: a record showing your name as a complainant or as a person of interest is releasable to you under § 39-121; the agency can redact other parties' personal info but not the report's substance. If charges were filed and dropped or resulted in a not-guilty verdict, you may also petition under A.R.S. § 13-911 to set aside or seal the record. For the criminal-damage statute itself (Class 1–4 misdemeanor or Class 4 felony depending on dollar amount), see https://www.phoenix.gov/administration/departments/police/public-safety-services/business-crime-prevention/report-criminal-property-damage.html. Talk to a defense attorney before any sealing motion. Sources: Phoenix Police Public Records FAQ, A.R.S. § 39-121, Jackson White Law

Question 6

What's the right place to search court cases in Maricopa?

Accepted Answer

Maricopa County court cases run through three layers; the right portal depends on case type. (1) **Maricopa County Superior Court** — felonies, divorce, probate, civil cases over $10,000, juvenile (sealed), family. Search the official **Docket** at https://www.superiorcourt.maricopa.gov/docket/index.asp — name, case number, attorney, judge. The Superior Court handles ~250,000 new filings per year and is the largest in the state. (2) **Maricopa County Justice Courts** — civil under $10,000, eviction, small claims, traffic, misdemeanor citations. There are 26 Justice Court precincts; case lookup at https://justicecourts.maricopa.gov/app/courtrecords/casesearch. Pick the right precinct (Kyrene, Arrowhead, Encanto, etc.) by the address where the citation issued. (3) **Municipal Courts** — city ordinance and traffic cases inside city limits: Phoenix Municipal at https://www.phoenix.gov/courts (often the highest volume), Mesa, Chandler, Glendale, Scottsdale, Tempe, Peoria, Surprise — each has its own portal, all linked from https://justicecourts.maricopa.gov. **Statewide consolidator**: Arizona Judicial Branch Public Access at https://apps.azcourts.gov/publicaccess/caselookup.aspx wraps all three. **Limits**: sealed, juvenile, and expunged cases not visible. Document copies: $0.50/page uncertified, certified copy $30 first page + $0.50 each additional. Sources: Maricopa County Superior Court, Maricopa County Justice Courts, Arizona Judicial Branch
