County Jail and Court Records
For a Lauderdale County Jail exit, ask the sheriff whether custody ended as a community release or a transfer. No public counter hours or dedicated records extension were verified, so call before visiting and ask for the records custodian and accepted request method.
Lauderdale County Sheriff's Office
675 Highway 51 South or PO Box 30
Ripley, TN 38063
731-635-1311

Hours: call before visiting
The legal order is held by the appropriate clerk. Circuit Court Clerk Jodie Edwards can be reached at 731-635-0101 and jodie.edwards@tncourts.gov. Tennessee Courts lists Circuit, Criminal, and Chancery functions at 675 Highway 51 South, while an older county source identifies 100 Court Square. Confirm the correct counter by phone.
Where Each Inquiry Goes
Use the custodian that created the record instead of sending personal details through this site:
- For a named person's release and the full record-request path, use the Lauderdale release search and then contact the sheriff or court.
- For parole or probation, see Post-Release Supervision and TDOC District 61 at 2155 St. Johns Avenue, Dyersburg, TN 38024, 731-288-7910.
- For a same-day county check, use the 24-Hour Releases fallback because no official feed was verified.
- For sentence calculations, use Release Date Lookup; TDOC is at 320 Sixth Avenue North, Nashville, TN 37243-0465, 615-741-1000.
- For a custody alert, use the VINE Inmate Check and VINELink support at 1-866-277-7477.
- For WTSP or WTRC, use TDOC FOIL and state records rather than the county jail.
- For a federal or immigration matter, use BOP, the federal court or USMS, or ICE as the known custodian requires.
