Police Report Request (GRAMA)

Under the Government Records Access Management Act (GRAMA), people are able to request copies of police reports. Generally, copies of police reports are not able to be released until after they have been adjudicated or processed through court. If you are the defendant in a case that is not adjudicated and are currently not represented by an attorney in the matter, you can obtain a copy through Discovery at the Prosecuting Attorney’s Office. If you are represented by an attorney, your attorney will need to request the report. If you are listed as a victim of domestic violence on the report you are seeking, the case will be provided to you immediately, at no charge.

The law provides 10 working days for us to process your request (5 days if you can show that you must have an expedited response). When you make a request, you will be required to fill out a GRAMA Request Form. Please also provide the following information:

• Valid Government Photo Identification 
• Date(s) of Incident(s) Requested 
• Description of record(s) and reason for the request (be specific, listing all documents needed  
• Case Number

Please make sure you are as specific as possible as to what information you are requesting and why you need this. You may request more than one record. 

To request copies of a police report please follow the instructions on the request for records (GRAMA) portal through NextRequest.
