Hamilton County Record Holders
The Hamilton County Sheriff's Office is at 600 Market Street, Chattanooga, TN 37402, with a main line at 423-209-7000 and a countywide non-emergency line at 423-622-0022. The Records Office is 423-209-7111, and Tennessee Open Records requests go to openrecords@hcsheriff.gov. Hamilton County Jail & Detention Center is at 601 Justice Way, Chattanooga, TN 37421; HCSO's homepage lists 423-209-7125. HCSO also publishes 423-209-7050 in Corrections contexts, so confirm the jail number on the current HCSO page before calling.
Use the office that maintains the particular record. A city police department may hold the originating report, while HCSO retains the jail booking material and the Criminal Court Clerk handles later criminal-case confirmation.
