This Is Not a Government Office. This privately run resource cannot retrieve a record, complete an official background check, correct or remove a record, or receive an expungement petition. Contact the government custodian directly for those services.
Need an Official Record?
Use the office tied to the specific De Baca County record:
- Arrest, incident, booking, and warrant-related records: contact the De Baca County Sheriff's Office for records it created
- Felony cases and certified District Court copies: contact the Tenth Judicial District Court clerk in Fort Sumner
- Misdemeanor, DWI, traffic, and felony preliminary files: contact De Baca County Magistrate Court
- Village ordinance and municipal traffic matters: contact Fort Sumner Municipal Court at Village Hall
- Personal New Mexico arrest records: use the notarized subject-access process through NMDPS Law Enforcement Records Bureau
- Expungement petitions: begin with the District Court associated with the arrest or case and use current New Mexico Courts forms
