Use this page to route an Arenac County custody, booking, court, or public-record question to the office responsible for it. Questions about this privately operated guide are separate from requests for government records.

This is not a government office. We cannot confirm who is in custody, release anyone, retrieve a booking record, change a charge, or provide a mugshot. Contact the responsible agency directly for official information.


Sheriff and Jail Questions

Arenac County Sheriff’s Department
126 Grove Street
Standish, Michigan 48658
Office and non-emergency: 989-846-3002
Email: jmosciski@arenaccountymi.gov

The department operates countywide road patrol continuously, but that is not a promise that records staff answer around the clock. Call 911 for an emergency.


Dispatch and Immediate Safety

Arenac County Central Dispatch
126 N. Grove Street, P.O. Box 747
Standish, MI 48658
Non-emergency dispatch: 989-846-4561
Director office: 989-846-9077
Email: 911@arenaccountymi.gov

Dispatch is never closed and routes public-safety calls. It is not the place to request a booking photograph or copy of an arrest record.


Request a County Record

Nancy Selle, Arenac County Clerk and FOIA Coordinator
P.O. Box 747, 120 N. Grove Street
Standish, MI 48658
Phone: 989-846-4626
Email: nselle@arenaccountymi.gov

Use the official county FOIA page for a sheriff booking card, intake or release record, or booking photograph that may be maintained and releasable. Name the person, date or date range, arresting agency, and exact record. The county says it responds within five business days and may take a ten-business-day extension; use of its form is not required.

The 81st District and 23rd Circuit clerk offices publish regular hours of Monday through Friday, 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. The district page notes a noon-to-1 p.m. lunch period.
