Use the Clerk for docket sheets, bond orders, judgments, sentences, dismissals, and certified court copies. The office does not conduct civil or criminal searches by telephone.

The court handles judicial business. Request record copies from the County and District Clerk, not from the judge.
TDCJ Status Contacts
Use TDCJ only for Texas state custody or state release processing. The general locator numbers are 936-295-6371 and 800-535-0283. Before a Board of Pardons and Paroles vote, call 844-512-0461. After a favorable vote, release processing is at 512-406-5202. Published telephone hours are Monday–Friday, 8 a.m.–5 p.m.
For no-charge basic inmate information, email pia@tdcj.texas.gov. TDCJ Public Information Requests may also be mailed to PO Box 4017, Huntsville, TX 77342. These channels do not replace the Sutton Sheriff for an ordinary county bond release.

1070 Gateway Drive
San Angelo, TX 76905
Phone: 325-947-8644

This is Sutton County’s state parole and mandatory-supervision route. It is not the office for ordinary court-ordered probation. Use the TDCJ Community Justice Assistance Division locator for the correct multi-county probation department.
