Garfield Record Contacts

The Garfield County Sheriff’s Office is the first official contact for an arrest handled by sheriff deputies, a transfer question, or a sheriff-held public-records request. Garfield’s local jail is closed, so confirm the actual receiving facility before relying on any outside jail roster.

For a narrow sheriff request, use the GCSO Public Disclosure Request route. Its published form lists 15 cents per paper page, 10 cents per GB of digital records, 5 cents for each four digital files or attachments, and $4 or actual cost for a thumb drive or CD. Most requests are described as filled within five business days, while Washington law sets five business days for the initial agency response.

• Use the Garfield County record path for the conditional Whitman roster route, state custody search, records requests, and court steps.
• For a potential local warrant, use the warrant confirmation route to identify the issuing court and obtain current procedural information.
• Garfield District Court is at 789 W Main Street, Pomeroy, WA 99347, telephone 509-843-1002.
• Garfield Superior Court and County Clerk are at 789 Main Street, Pomeroy, WA 99347, telephone 509-843-3731. The clerk mailing address is PO Box 915, Pomeroy, WA 99347.
• After GCSO or Whitman confirms a Whitman placement, Whitman County Jail is at 411 N Mill Street, Colfax, WA 99111, telephone 509-397-5585.
• For a person in state correctional custody, use the WA DOC incarcerated search. Federal and immigration custody have separate BOP and ICE locators.

Do not use 911 for a routine records question. Call 911 for an immediate emergency. A court file, current physical custody, and a sheriff arrest report are different records, and each office can confirm only the information it maintains.
