Montgomery County Records Contacts

This is a private reference site, not a government office. We cannot confirm custody or release, release anyone, post bail, or retrieve official booking records. Contact the responsible public office directly.

Choose the Record Custodian

Montgomery County release questions go to different offices based on the record and custodian. MCCF can route a county-jail status or discharge question. The Clerk supplies filed criminal court records. County Adult Probation handles supervision under Montgomery County court orders. PADOC maintains state-prison and state-supervision records, while PA SAVIN provides custody notifications from participating agencies. These offices do not replace one another.

Montgomery County Correctional Facility

Warden Sean P. McGee
60 Eagleville Road
Eagleville, PA 19403
610-635-7100
Monday-Friday, 8 a.m.-4 p.m.

Use MCCF for county-jail custody routing and questions about its admission, discharge, or transfer records. A formal request for non-law-enforcement county records can be filed through Montgomery County JustFOIA.

Montgomery County Clerk of Courts

Montgomery County Courthouse, second floor
2 E. Airy Street
Norristown, PA 19404
Mail: P.O. Box 311, Norristown, PA 19404-0311
610-278-3346
Monday-Friday, 8:30 a.m.-4:30 p.m.

Use the Clerk for filed Common Pleas criminal documents, certified court orders, case dispositions, and sentencing records. Public docket searches begin at the Pennsylvania UJS Portal, but certified documents come from the Clerk.

Montgomery County Adult Probation

408 Cherry Street
Norristown, PA 19401
610-992-7777
Weekdays, 8 a.m.-4:30 p.m.

This county department routes probation and local-parole matters under Montgomery County court orders. It also operates offices in Lansdale, Willow Grove, and Pottstown. A public docket can establish the supervision sentence, while staff determine proper office routing and what may be confirmed.

Pennsylvania Department of Corrections

Central Office
1920 Technology Parkway
Mechanicsburg, PA 17050
717-728-2573
Inmate records: RA-centechrecords@pa.gov

Use PADOC for state-prison and state-supervision records, including records tied to SCI Phoenix. The PADOC Inmate/Parolee Locator separates people under current DOC jurisdiction from Department Supervised Individuals. MCCF-only records belong with the county jail.

PA SAVIN on VINE

1-866-972-7284
TTY: 1-866-847-1298
Automated and operator functions available around the clock

PA SAVIN provides free custody checking and notifications through participating agencies. Search through VINELink, the VINE app, or the telephone service. A VINE event reflects what a participating source reported and is not a certified discharge record.

Use the route that matches the immediate need:

  • For a released person or formal release record, the home page sets out the full MCCF, docket, VINE, and request sequence.
  • For county or state supervision after release, consult Post-Release Supervision and then contact the correct county or PADOC office.
  • For very recent county-jail activity, use 24-Hour Releases, which explains the verified fallback because no official rolling feed was found.
  • For a sentence-related date or alert, compare Release Date Lookup with the VINE Inmate Check.
  • For a named institution, use its facility page and the custodian listed there.
  • For a sentenced Pennsylvania state prisoner, use PADOC rather than MCCF.
  • For federal or immigration custody, use the official BOP Inmate Locator or ICE Online Detainee Locator.
