Questions about official Jackson County criminal records belong with the government office that created or maintains the file. This private site cannot process a request. The contacts below route court files to the courthouse, Sheriff reports and jail material to the Law Enforcement Center, and statewide histories to Iowa DCI.

This Is Not a Government Office. We run a private reference site. We cannot pull criminal records, run official background checks, remove or correct a record, or accept expungement filings for anyone. For any of those, you need to reach the right government office directly.

Use the office that matches the Jackson County record:

  • Court case files: contact the Jackson County Clerk of District Court at 201 W. Platt St., Maquoketa, IA 52060, 563-652-4946

  • Arrest, booking, and jail material: contact Jackson County Sheriff Records at 1700 E. Maple St., Maquoketa, IA 52060, 563-652-3312
  • Official Iowa record checks: submit the DCI request and billing forms through the state criminal-history channel
