Most Washington County criminal-record questions belong with the government office that created or maintains the source file. The contacts below route court requests to the clerk, sheriff and detention questions to the courthouse complex in Plymouth, and fingerprint-based personal reviews to NCSBI. This private site cannot accept or fulfill an official records request.

This Is Not a Government Office. This private reference site cannot retrieve official records, conduct an official check, correct government data, or receive an expunction filing.

Need an Official Record?

Use the Washington County or North Carolina custodian that matches the record:

  • Court files and certified county searches: Clerk of Superior Court, 120 Adams Street, PO Box 901, Plymouth, NC 27962; 252-791-4000; weekdays 8:30 a.m.-5:00 p.m.
  • Sheriff reports and criminal process: Sheriff's business office, fourth floor, 120 Adams Street, PO Box 969, Plymouth, NC 27962; 252-793-2422; weekdays 8:30 a.m.-5:00 p.m.
  • Current county custody: Washington County detention at 252-793-1107.
  • Plymouth Police records: Records Clerk Shannon Sanderlin at 252-793-4680.
  • Fingerprint-based personal review: North Carolina State Bureau of Investigation Right to Review, submitted by mail under its official instructions.
  • Expunction: file with the clerk in the North Carolina county where the charge or conviction arose.

The clerk and sheriff share the Washington County Courthouse address but keep different records. Call the clerk for the prosecuted case and the sheriff for a sheriff-created incident, arrest, or detention record.
