Mono County Jail and Booking

The Mono County Jail in Bridgeport is a small facility that handles all bookings for the county. When someone gets arrested by the sheriff's deputies, Mammoth Lakes Police, or any other agency in the county, they come to this jail for processing. Staff record the person's name, date of birth, physical description, charges, arresting agency, arrest time, and bail amount. They also take fingerprints and a booking photo. This creates the Mono County booking report.

Mono County runs along the Eastern Sierra, bordering Nevada. Mammoth Lakes is the largest community, though Bridgeport is the county seat. The county gets heavy tourist traffic for skiing, fishing, and outdoor recreation. Some bookings involve visitors rather than residents. Regardless of who gets arrested, the booking process and public access to the report are the same. Mono County is subject to the same California public records laws as every other county.

Mono County Booking Records Law

The California Public Records Act makes Mono County booking reports public. Government Code Section 7923.600 lists the specific booking data that law enforcement must release. That covers names, charges, bail, arrest and booking times, and the person's location in custody. Mono County must follow these rules just like the big urban counties do.

Full criminal histories are restricted under Penal Code Section 13300. You cannot get a person's complete rap sheet from the Mono County Sheriff. That requires going through the California DOJ with fingerprints and a $25 fee. But the individual booking report from a single Mono County arrest is public and available without restriction.

Track Mono County Inmates

California VINE covers Mono County. Register for free custody alerts. VINE notifies you by phone, email, or text when an offender is released, transferred, or changes status. This is helpful because the online booking tool may only show current inmates. VINE gives you ongoing tracking without repeated phone calls to the jail.

State prison inmates from Mono County convictions can be found through CIRIS. For personal criminal history checks, use the DOJ Record Review at $25 with fingerprints. These are statewide tools that work independently from Mono County's local booking records.

Note: Written records requests to the Mono County Sheriff must be answered within 10 days under California law.

Sealing Mono County Arrest Records

Under Penal Code Section 851.91, a person arrested in Mono County whose case did not end in conviction may petition the court to seal the arrest record. If the court grants the petition, the booking report is sealed and no longer available through public records requests or the CrimeGraphics portal. This gives people a path to clear their name when charges are dropped or dismissed. The petition must be filed with the court in Mono County.
