This is a private reference site, not a Montgomery County government office. We cannot confirm whether someone is in custody, release a detainee, post bond, schedule a visit, retrieve an official booking record, or change a court date. Use the official office below that matches the record or custody type.
Where to Ask for Jail, Court, and Custody Records
Montgomery County does not publish an official online county jail roster in the researched source set, so the sheriff's office is the primary local contact for current jail custody. Written public-records requests may cite Mississippi Public Records Act Section 25-61-1 and should be sent to the office that maintains the record.
