Questions about official Barbour County criminal records should go to the government office that maintains the source file. The Barbour County Sheriff's Office handles jail, booking, and sheriff-created enforcement records. Circuit Clerk Paige Q. Smith maintains Circuit and District Court files through the Clayton and Eufaula courthouse counters. ALEA handles a person's fingerprint-based review of his or her own statewide Alabama criminal history. The contacts below route each request without treating one office as custodian of every record.

This Is Not a Government Office. This is a private reference site. We cannot retrieve or correct criminal records, conduct an official background check, issue certified copies, or accept an expungement filing.

Need an Official Record?

Use the office tied to the record and confirm current requirements before visiting or sending payment:

  • Circuit and District Court files: contact Barbour County Circuit Clerk Paige Q. Smith. The Clayton counter is at 1 Court Square, Clayton, AL 36016, 334-775-8366 or 334-775-8700. The Eufaula counter is at 405 East Barbour Street, Suite A119, Eufaula, AL 36027, with Circuit Criminal at 334-687-1515 and the clerk at 334-687-1516.
  • Clerk hours: both county locations publish Monday, Wednesday, and Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., closed noon to 1:00 p.m.; Tuesday and Thursday from 8:00 a.m. to noon.
  • Jail, booking, and sheriff records: contact the Barbour County Sheriff's Office, 24 Robertson Airport Drive, Clayton, AL 36016, at 334-775-3434 or contact@barbourcountysheriff.org. Published closing times conflict across sheriff pages, so call before visiting.
  • State criminal-history self-review: use the Alabama Law Enforcement Agency CJIS Form 46 fingerprint route. ALEA background-check help is 334-676-7897, Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Central.
  • Police or incident reports: ask the agency that created the report. Eufaula Police Records is at 545 East Barbour Street, 334-687-1200; Clayton Police is at 6 South Midway Street, 334-775-8011.
  • Expungement: petitions are filed in the criminal division of Circuit Court in the county where the charge was filed. The clerk can provide court records but cannot substitute for legal advice.

For Barbour County court charges and outcomes, the two clerk counters are the primary official record offices. For a sheriff incident, county booking, jail status, or local registration question, begin with the Sheriff's Office. A Barbour County criminal court case search can help distinguish a court file from a police report or booking entry.
