If you need the criminal court record rather than the jail entry, use the Livingston Parish Clerk of Court. A jail roster or booking photograph documents custody; it does not establish guilt or the final outcome of a criminal case.

Open the Sheriff-linked jail roster
The Livingston Parish Sheriff’s Detention Center roster is provided through the parish’s LAVNS-connected inmate system.
Search by name
Use the inmate’s full name where possible. The roster also provides alphabetical browsing.
Compare the booking information
Review name, date of birth where displayed, booking date and other available identifiers before deciding that the record belongs to the correct person.
Check custody status
The roster is useful for present incarceration. A person who has already been released may no longer appear on the current list.
Move to the court record when necessary
For criminal charges and disposition information, use the Livingston Parish Clerk rather than relying only on the detention record.
Current Jail Roster vs. Official Public Record
The Livingston Parish Sheriff’s roster itself warns that its incarcerated-offender information is provided in the interest of public safety and should not be treated as an official public document.
Livingston Parish Inmate Mugshots and Booking Records
Booking photographs may be connected with jail or booking records, but availability can vary by record system and record status. Do not identify someone from a mugshot alone.
| Record field | What it can show | What it does not prove |
|---|---|---|
| Mugshot | Booking photograph associated with detention | Guilt or conviction |
| Booking date | When an inmate entered the booking process | The final court disposition |
| Charge | An allegation connected with detention | The final prosecuted or adjudicated charge |
| Custody status | Whether the person appears in current detention | The complete criminal history |
| Release | That jail custody changed | Dismissal, acquittal or conviction |

How to Request Livingston Parish Sheriff’s Records
The Livingston Parish Sheriff’s Office currently publishes a specific written-request policy for public records.
Requests must be mailed
The published Sheriff’s policy says public-record requests must be submitted in writing by United States Mail to the Custodian of Records.
Custodian of RecordsLivingston Parish Sheriff’s Office
P.O. Box 850
Livingston, LA 70754
What the request should include
- Your name
- Your age
- Your return address
- Enough information to identify the requested record
The Sheriff’s policy says requests submitted by another method are not treated as received. After review, the agency determines whether the requested material is public under Louisiana law. If releasable, the requester receives an invoice before records are released.

Livingston Parish Criminal Record Check
The Livingston Parish Clerk publishes a Criminal Record Check Request form for searches of its own court records.
The current published form asks for the defendant’s name and date of birth and offers searches from 1990 through the current date or a broader search that includes records before 1990.
Published Clerk record-check fee
The Clerk’s current request form lists a $20 fee per requested name variation.
The results are limited to Livingston Parish Clerk case-management records and include docket numbers, offenses and a brief description of dispositions.
What if the Inmate Is No Longer on the Livingston Parish Jail Roster?
A current roster is designed primarily to show incarcerated offenders. Someone who bonded out, completed a sentence, was released by court order or transferred may disappear from the active list.
Check the criminal court case
Use the Clerk when you need to determine what happened after the booking or whether the criminal case remains pending.
Request an older Sheriff’s record
If the booking is no longer available through the active roster, use the Sheriff’s mailed public-record process for eligible agency records.
LAVNS and Custody-Status Notifications
The Livingston Parish Sheriff’s website links to LAVNS, Louisiana’s victim-notification system. The Sheriff-linked detention roster also provides a route for anonymous registration for notifications concerning changes in an offender’s custody status.
When to Search Louisiana Corrections Instead
If a person has left parish jail and entered Louisiana state correctional custody, the local Livingston Parish roster may no longer be the correct source.
The Louisiana Department of Public Safety & Corrections separately lists Livingston Parish’s local jail information and maintains state correctional resources for people under state custody.
Why You May Not Find a Livingston Parish Inmate or Mugshot
| Problem | Possible explanation | Next step |
|---|---|---|
| No current roster result | The person may have been released, transferred or entered under another name variation. | Check the Clerk’s criminal record or contact the Detention Center. |
| No mugshot visible | The public roster result may not display a booking photograph. | Verify the record using name, DOB and booking information. |
| Old mugshot appears on another website | A third-party site may retain a historical booking after release. | Return to the current Sheriff roster and court record. |
| Need an official arrest document | The roster itself is not the official public document. | Use the Sheriff’s public-record request process. |
| Need the final court result | The jail record reflects detention, not final disposition. | Use the Livingston Parish Clerk of Court. |
| Person entered state custody | Parish detention may have ended after transfer. | Use Louisiana state corrections resources. |
