Common Questions
Answers verified against official agency websites and state statutes.
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'.
How do I look up property records in Jacksonville?▼
Property records in Jacksonville, Florida (consolidated with Duval County) come from three offices. (1) The Duval County Clerk of Courts Official Records at https://oncore.duvalclerk.com indexes deeds, mortgages, liens, and judgments back to 1968 — search by name or document type, free to view, $1/page certified copies + $2 certification. (2) The Duval County Property Appraiser at https://paopropertysearch.coj.net provides parcel ID, ownership, sales history, building characteristics, homestead exemption status, and assessed/market values — also free. (3) The Duval County Tax Collector at https://www.duvaltaxcollect.net handles tax bills and tax-deed history. Recording fees are statewide: $10 first page, $8.50 each additional, plus documentary stamp tax of $0.70 per $100 of consideration. All records are public under Ch. 28 F.S. with limited redactions for protected persons (judges, LEOs, prosecutors) under §119.071(4)(d). For surveys or unrecorded leases, contact the buyer's title company; municipal liens are at the COJ Municipal Code site.
