Common Questions
Answers verified against official agency websites and state statutes. Note: County-level FAQ — applies to all of Duval County. No city-specific FAQ is available yet — the answers below apply to the broader jurisdiction.
Where can I find information on how to obtain someone's police report?▼
Police reports for Jacksonville/Duval County, Florida come from the Jacksonville Sheriff's Office (JSO), which handles consolidated city-county law enforcement. Submit a public records request at https://www.jaxsheriff.org/ — online form, mail, fax, or in person at 501 E Bay St, Jacksonville FL 32202. JSO charges $0.15 per single-sided page, $0.20 double-sided, and a $5.00 'extensive use' labor fee per 15 minutes if research exceeds 30 minutes. Crash reports go through the Florida Crash Portal at https://services.flhsmv.gov/CrashPortal ($10 each, 60-day delay for non-parties under §316.066(2)(c) F.S.). Active-investigation reports are exempt under Ch. 119.071(2)(c) F.S. until the case is closed. Victim PII, juvenile names, and witness contact info are redacted. For online crime reports filed by the public, JSO's Online Crime Reporting is at https://www.jaxsheriff.org/ (non-injury, no-suspect cases only). Florida Sunshine Law (Ch. 119 F.S.) requires response within a 'reasonable time'.
What's the right way to do a background check on someone in Duval?▼
For a background check on someone in Duval County, Florida, the proper workflow combines state and local sources. Start at FDLE's statewide criminal history at https://www.fdle.state.fl.us/Criminal-History-Records — $24 name-based, $37 with FBI, results in 1-3 days. Layer in Duval-specific court records via the Duval County Clerk of Courts at https://www.duvalclerk.com (Civil, Criminal, Family, Probate divisions) and statewide CCIS at https://www.flccis.com. The Jacksonville Sheriff's Office at https://www.jaxsheriff.org/Resources/inmates.aspx covers arrests/inmates (Duval is consolidated with Jacksonville). For employment in positions of trust, use FDLE VECHS Level 2 fingerprinting at https://www.fdle.state.fl.us/VECHS ($24 + rolling fee). Add federal cases through PACER at https://pacer.uscourts.gov ($0.10/page, free <$30/qtr) — Duval is in the Middle District of Florida. Sex offender registry: https://offender.fdle.state.fl.us.

What's the right way to do a background check on someone in Jacksonville?▼

How do I run a background check in Jacksonville?▼

How can I find out if someone has an outstanding warrant in Bay?▼
Outstanding warrants in Bay County, Florida are checked through the Bay County Sheriff's Office Warrants Division at https://bayso.org/warrants. The Warrants Division enters all felony warrants into BCSO's Records Management System, NCIC, and the FCIC/FDLE statewide system. The statewide FDLE Wanted Persons database is at http://pas.fdle.state.fl.us/pas/restricted/PAS/person/WantedPersons.jsf. For a personal warrant check, call BCSO Records Division at (850) 747-4700 or visit 3421 N Highway 77, Panama City FL 32405; staff will not confirm by phone but you can ask in person. Many people instead retain a Florida attorney to clear the warrant before walk-in to avoid arrest. Active misdemeanor and traffic warrants also appear on the Bay County Clerk of Court case search at https://www.baycoclerk.com. Federal warrants are not in the local system — check US Marshals at https://www.usmarshals.gov/wanted. Quashing a warrant in Florida requires a motion to the circuit or county court under Fla. R. Crim. P. 3.730.
