Official Franklin County criminal records must come from the government office that keeps them. Court papers and certificates come from the correct clerk, while sheriff reports and jail booking records begin at the Sheriff's Department. A person's own fingerprint-based New York history comes from DCJS. The contacts below route each type of request without implying that this private site can receive or fulfill it.

This Is Not a Government Office. This private reference site cannot retrieve or correct records, conduct an official background check, or accept a record-sealing filing. Contact the record-holding office directly.

Need an Official Record?

Use the office that owns the Franklin County record:

  • Court case files: Franklin County Supreme and County Court clerk, 355 West Main Street, Malone, NY 12953; 518-353-7333; FranklinSupremeCo@nycourts.gov, or the clerk of the local court that heard the case
  • Personal fingerprint records: New York State Division of Criminal Justice Services Personal Record Review through IdentoGO
  • Arrest and incident records: Franklin County Sheriff's Department, 45 Bare Hill Road, Malone, NY 12953; administration 518-483-3304
  • Current jail custody: Franklin County booking at 518-483-6795
  • Police reports and incident records: contact the agency that wrote the report
  • Record sealing: begin with the clerk of the court where the conviction or other case outcome occurred

The Sheriff's Department does not advertise a separately named records division, fixed records-counter hours, or a public roster. Use its administration number for report requests and the booking line for present custody. The county's formal route for existing agency records is a targeted request under the New York Freedom of Information Law.
