How to Search Maverick County Booking Records
Maverick County does not have a public online inmate search portal that is consistently accessible. The most direct way to check if someone is in custody is to call the Sheriff's Office at (830) 773-2321. Staff can confirm current inmate status and provide basic booking details during business hours.
For written records requests, send your request to 1051 Balboa-Jones Blvd, Eagle Pass, TX 78852. The Texas Public Information Act gives you the right to request arrest and booking records from any Texas law enforcement agency. Your written request should include the full name of the person you are searching for, an approximate arrest date if known, and your contact information. The agency must respond within 10 business days. If they withhold records, they must explain why using a specific legal reason.
If the person you're looking for has been moved to a state facility, the TDCJ Offender Search tracks individuals in Texas Department of Criminal Justice custody. VINELink is a free service that can notify you when an inmate's custody status changes. Both tools work statewide and can be useful if you're not sure where someone is being held.
For court records tied to an arrest, contact the Maverick County District Clerk. Court case records are kept separately from jail booking records and may include charges filed, hearings scheduled, and case outcomes.

What Maverick County Booking Reports Include
Each time someone is booked into the Maverick County Jail, a booking record is created. This document captures the basic facts of the arrest and the person in custody. It is a public record under Texas law.
Booking records typically include the full name and date of birth of the person arrested, the date and time of booking, charges filed at the time of arrest, bond amount if set by the court, the arresting agency, a booking number, and a physical description. Not all records will include every field. Some information may be withheld for active investigations, and juvenile records are sealed under Texas law.
Because Maverick County is a border county, some arrests may involve federal agencies such as U.S. Border Patrol or ICE. Records tied to those agencies may be handled differently from state and local bookings. If you need a full criminal history report covering multiple Texas counties or statewide activity, contact the Texas DPS Crime Records Division, which maintains the statewide database.
