Find a Tallahassee Arrest and Trace It From Police Report to Court Outcome
Tallahassee arrest information is divided among the Tallahassee Police Department, Leon County Sheriff’s Office and Leon County Clerk of Court. A jail booking can tell you that an arrest occurred, but it does not tell you how the criminal charge ultimately ended.
Start with the Leon County inmate search for a recent arrest, use TPD Records for the underlying police report, and finish with the Clerk’s criminal docket to verify the prosecutor’s charge, hearings and final disposition.

ARREST → OUTCOME VERIFIED
Arrest does not mean conviction. Leon County expressly warns that its inmate search displays arrest information only and does not reflect the final disposition of the charge. Use the Clerk’s criminal case record before describing someone as convicted.
Best Tallahassee workflow: identify the current or past Leon County booking → confirm Tallahassee Police was the arresting agency → save the TPD case number → obtain the releasable police report → search the Leon criminal docket → verify every charge and final disposition.
Current custody
Leon County Detention Facility, 535 Appleyard Drive.
TPD reports
Incident, arrest and calls-for-service records are handled by TPD Records.
TPD background check
Current local TPD-only check costs $5.
Court search

Use the Sheriff’s inmate search for arrest and current detention information.
Best for: recent arrest, custody, charge and release/bond questions.
TALLAHASSEE POLICE
What did police record?
Request the incident or arrest report from TPD when TPD created the case.
Best for: report narrative, incident date, arrest details and offense information.
LEON COUNTY CLERK
What happened in court?
Search criminal court records for filings, docket events and dispositions.
Best for: prosecutor charge, hearings, judgment and dismissal.
FDLE
What exists statewide?
FDLE maintains Florida’s central criminal-history repository.
Best for: Florida-wide criminal history beyond Tallahassee.
Find someone booked after a Tallahassee arrest
The Sheriff’s online inmate search is informational only. Leon County specifically says it should not be relied upon for legal action or used as a complete criminal background check.
Open the official inmate search
Enter the first and last name
Search the legal booked name. Add other filters only when they improve accuracy.
Use ethnicity or gender when necessary
These filters can help narrow common-name results.
Open every plausible result
Do not assume a matching name belongs to the person you are researching.
Read the arrest information
Use the booking data to identify the arrest event and current custody context.
Save the SPN or inmate identifier when displayed
You will need the inmate’s legal name and SPN for personal mail and other detention services.
Identify the arresting agency
A person can be housed at Leon County Detention Facility after arrest by TPD, LCSO, FSU Police, FAMU Police, Florida Highway Patrol or another agency.
Call for live release or bond information
Detention Facility: 850-606-3500.
Search the court case next
The jail record does not tell you the final disposition.
What a Leon County arrest result can and cannot establish
| Information | Useful for | Does not establish | Next step |
|---|---|---|---|
| Booked name | Identifying how the inmate is entered in jail records. | That a same-name result is your person. | Match DOB, SPN and case details. |
| Arrest / booking information | Locating the custody event. | Final prosecutor filing. | Request the arresting-agency report. |
| Charge | Understanding the allegation associated with custody. | Guilt or conviction. | Search the Clerk docket. |
| Bond | Understanding the current release entry. | That no separate hold exists. | Call Releasing before payment. |
| Release | Showing that local custody ended. | That charges were dismissed. | Continue tracking court. |
Confirm the person before connecting an arrest record to them
Full legal name matches
Middle name or suffix is consistent
DOB or age matches
SPN or inmate identifier is consistent
Arrest date matches the known event
Arresting agency matches the location
TPD case number matches when applicable
Court case follows the same incident
Minimum safety rule: use at least two independent identifiers before publishing an arrest allegation or treating a search result as belonging to a particular person.
Why a Tallahassee arrest may not appear where expected
The arrest is very recent
Booking and public-system processing may still be underway.
The person was already released
Search the criminal court case and request the police report.
The spelling differs
Try aliases, former surnames, suffixes and spelling variations.
Another agency made the arrest
TPD records do not contain every Leon County police report.
The person received a notice to appear
A criminal court case can exist without a lengthy jail booking.
The person entered state custody
Search Florida Department of Corrections after a qualifying state sentence.
The record is confidential, sealed or expunged
Restricted information can disappear from normal public access.
You need an older local history
Use TPD’s $5 local check or LCSO records, depending on which agency created the record.
Request the Tallahassee Police record behind the arrest
TPD Records handles public requests for incident reports, arrest reports, traffic crash reports and calls for service.
Confirm TPD created the report
If LCSO, FSU Police, FAMU Police or another agency made the arrest, request the record from that agency instead.
Get the TPD case number when possible
TPD case numbers use the year plus a sequence, such as 26-12345. A case number speeds retrieval.
If you do not know the case number, identify the event precisely
Provide the person’s name, incident or arrest date, address/location and nature of the incident.
Ask for the specific record
Request an arrest report, incident report or calls-for-service record rather than every document containing a person’s name.
Use the online Public Records Request option
Open TPD Records and select All Public Records Requests.
Or request by phone, fax, mail or in person
TPD does not require one particular request format.
You do not have to explain why you want a public record
TPD states that a requester is not required to identify themselves or explain the purpose of the request, although the request must be clear enough for a meaningful search.
Ask for an estimate when the request is large
Extensive retrieval, review or redaction can create a special service charge.
Copy-ready TPD arrest-report request
I request the releasable Tallahassee Police Department arrest report, incident report and specifically identifiable related public records concerning [full legal name] for the incident/arrest on [date] at [location]. The TPD case number is [number], if known. Please provide electronic copies where available and identify the statutory basis for any redaction or withheld information. Please advise me before incurring any substantial special-service or duplication charge.

A case can be active and still have some public arrest information
Florida law protects active criminal investigative and intelligence information from ordinary disclosure. That does not make every fact about an active arrest secret.
TPD currently identifies several categories that can remain public even when investigative information is active:
Time, date, location and nature of the reported crime
Name, sex, age and address of an arrested adult, subject to exceptions
Time, date and location of the incident
Time, date and location of the arrest
Crime charged
Certain victim information except protected categories
Permanent or situational exemptions can include Social Security numbers, medical information, banking information, certain protected victim identities, confidential informants, sealed/expunged records and other information protected by law.
Know the current Tallahassee Police copy charges before ordering a large file
| Record / service | Current charge |
|---|---|
| First 7 standard single- or double-sided pages | No charge |
| Single-sided page after first 7 | $0.15 per page |
| Double-sided page after first 7 | $0.20 per page |
| Incident report requested by listed victim | No charge unless request is extensive |
| Compact disc | $1 |
| DVD / flash drive | $20 |
| Local TPD background check | $5 |
| Fingerprint card | $10 |
| Certification | Additional $1 per document |
TPD can also impose a special service charge when a request requires more than 15 minutes of extensive information-technology use, retrieval, supervision or redaction work. The charge is based on the lowest hourly rate of staff capable of completing the work.
A $5 TPD background letter is not a Florida criminal-history search
TPD local background check
Current charge: $5.
TPD searches its system for records where Tallahassee Police was the reporting agency and provides a letter describing what its records contain.
Florida statewide history
Use FDLE when the question includes arrests or prosecutions elsewhere in Florida.
Public FDLE search: $24.
A report initiated by the Leon County Sheriff’s Office will not necessarily appear in a TPD-only background check. TPD specifically directs requesters to LCSO for Sheriff’s records.
Verify what prosecutors filed and how the case ended
Leon County Clerk’s public court system includes available electronic civil, criminal and traffic case information except records that are confidential or exempt.
Open Search Court Records
Select Criminal / CF / MM
CF identifies felony circuit criminal matters; MM identifies county misdemeanor criminal matters.
Search by case number whenever possible
This is more reliable than a common-name search.
Otherwise use last name + first name
Add DOB when available to reduce same-name matches.
Use a date range when necessary
Begin and end dates can narrow a person with multiple cases.
Open the correct case
Verify the defendant and filing date before interpreting the charge.
Read progress docket entries chronologically
Look for initial filing, amended charges, hearings, pleas, dismissals and judgments.
Check every count separately
Different charges in the same case can receive different dispositions.
Use the court disposition—not the booking charge—for the final outcome
That is the key distinction in any arrest-record search.
Request the actual complaint, judgment or dismissal when proof matters
Open the case docket
Look for a document-image indicator beside the progress docket entry.
Use Request Document when available
The Clerk reviews requested documents for required redactions.
If no image exists, expect the statutory copy charge
Leon Clerk currently states that scanned or paper production of a non-imaged document costs $1 per page.
Wait for the Clerk’s fee notice
The office contacts the requester regarding any charge before completing delivery.
Use Secure Web for broader document viewing
Registered-access applications require completion, signature and notarization before submission to the Clerk.

Use a bondsman only after verifying the case
LCSO maintains informational lists but does not need to be treated as recommending one company.

Fix the government source that created the incorrect information
| Error | Start with | Useful proof |
|---|---|---|
| Wrong TPD arrest / incident information | TPD Records or investigating division | TPD case number, identification and official correction evidence. |
| Wrong Leon inmate / booking information | Leon County Sheriff’s Office / Detention | SPN, booking data and corrected originating record. |
| Wrong court disposition | Leon County Clerk / court | Judgment, dismissal or amended court order. |
| Wrong statewide Florida history | FDLE Criminal History Record Maintenance | Fingerprint-based Personal Review plus police/court records. |
Save the incorrect result
Record the exact entry, date, case number and source.
Obtain the controlling record
Use a dismissal, judgment, amended police record or another authoritative document.
Correct the originating agency first
FDLE or a private background company may simply be repeating data supplied elsewhere.
Use FDLE Personal Review for a statewide challenge
This provides the fingerprint-supported mechanism for reviewing Florida criminal-history accuracy.
Recheck every affected database
Updates do not always propagate at the same time.
Check sealing, expungement and automatic relief separately
A dismissed Tallahassee case does not automatically mean the arrest record has vanished. Florida adult criminal-history records can remain public unless a statute provides automatic relief or a court orders sealing or expungement.
Court-ordered sealing
Restricts ordinary public access while allowing specified agencies to access sealed information under Florida law.
Court-ordered expungement
Provides stronger statutory access restrictions; many entities receive only notice that a record was expunged.
Automatic sealing
FDLE also processes qualifying automatic sealing when it receives eligible certified dispositions from Florida clerks.
Get the final Leon County disposition
Determine exactly how each charge ended before deciding which relief route applies.
Keep copies of the arrest report and court record
FDLE recommends preserving relevant documents before a record becomes sealed or expunged.
Apply for an FDLE Certificate of Eligibility
This is the first step for ordinary court-ordered sealing or expungement under sections 943.059 and 943.0585.
Complete the application fully
FDLE requires identity information, arresting agency, arrest date and charges.
For an expunction application, obtain the prosecutor certification
The State Attorney or statewide prosecutor must complete the required certified statement.
Obtain a certified disposition
Include a certified disposition for every criminal charge listed on the application.
Provide the required fingerprint card
Fingerprints must be completed by an authorized law-enforcement or criminal-justice agency.
Pay the current FDLE fee
Certificate-of-Eligibility processing currently costs $75.
Allow for FDLE review
Current typical processing time is approximately 12 weeks after FDLE receives a complete packet. FDLE does not expedite applications.
Use the Leon Clerk’s local packet after eligibility
Leon County publishes separate felony, misdemeanor/criminal-traffic, juvenile and human-trafficking sealing/expungement packets.
File the petition in the court with jurisdiction
The FDLE certificate only confirms statutory eligibility to petition; it does not itself seal or expunge the record.
Keep the signed order permanently
A certified order can be essential if a later background database fails to update.
Florida’s ordinary court-ordered process generally permits one sealing or expungement proceeding in a lifetime under the applicable statutes, although directly related arrests and specialized statutory procedures can involve different rules.

Tallahassee arrest-record questions answered
How do I search Tallahassee arrest records?
Start with Leon County’s official inmate search for recent custody, request the TPD report when Tallahassee Police made the arrest, and verify the final case through the Leon County Clerk.
Where are people arrested by Tallahassee Police booked?
People remaining in local custody are generally processed through the Leon County Detention Facility at 535 Appleyard Drive in Tallahassee.
Does the jail search show the final outcome?
No. Leon County says its inmate search displays arrest information only and does not reflect final dispositions.
How do I get a Tallahassee Police arrest report?
Use TPD Records. You can request records online, by phone, fax, mail or in person. A case number, date, location and person’s name make the request easier to locate.
Can I search Leon County criminal cases online?
Yes. The Clerk provides public court searching for available criminal CF/MM cases using name, case number or ticket number, with DOB and date filters available.
How much is a TPD background check?
TPD currently charges $5 for a local background check of records in Tallahassee Police systems.
Can I call Leon County to ask if someone has a warrant?
Leon County Sheriff states that outstanding warrant information is not released by phone, electronically or through the mail. Use the Sheriff’s current in-person identity-verification procedure.
How much is an FDLE Florida criminal-history search?
The current public FDLE search fee is $24. The instant-search option also has a $1 card-processing fee.
How do I correct a wrong Tallahassee arrest record?
Identify whether the error originated with police, jail, court or FDLE, correct the originating government source and then verify downstream systems. FDLE Personal Review can be used to inspect and challenge your own statewide record.
Can a Tallahassee arrest record be sealed or expunged?
Some records qualify under Florida law. The ordinary court-ordered process begins with an FDLE Certificate of Eligibility, currently $75, followed by a court petition if FDLE determines the record is statutorily eligible.
