Find Carbon County Jail Releases

Carbon County Jail Release Paths

Carbon County Sheriff's Office operates the county jail and houses people brought by law-enforcement agencies from throughout Carbon County. The arresting agency may be a county or city office, but the booking remains a county-jail event until the person leaves that custody or another authority accepts the person. The official jail page does not publish the destination or release outcome.

Four broad paths can follow a Carbon County Jail booking. A person may return to the community after bond, own-recognizance release, time served, dismissal, sentence completion, or a judge's order. UDC may accept a state-sentenced person or someone subject to state action. Another county, a federal authority, or immigration authority may take custody. An administrative change can also remove a row without establishing a release. Only the release record, transfer entry, or receiving-agency record separates those outcomes.

Confirm Carbon County Jail Releases

Start with the official Carbon Current Bookings table. Search the last and first name, then compare the booking number and arrival field. A matching row supports a current booking, subject to agency update lag and the page disclaimer. If the person is absent, stop using the live table as proof and move to the record that closes the custody event.

For a durable answer, call the jail and request the release record through Carbon County's records process. Ask whether the named booking ended in community release or transfer. Court records may explain the legal basis, but a dismissal or sentence does not always state the exact time jail processing ended. The Carbon County released-inmate lookup provides the full search and records path for county, state, and federal custody.

1. Search the current table by first and last name, then record the booking number and arrival date.
2. If the row is gone, call 435-636-3254 and ask about that specific booking.
3. Request the actual release timestamp, disposition, destination or transfer agency, and hold clearance if recorded.
4. Check Carbon Justice Court or Seventh District Court for the judgment, dismissal, sentence, or later order.
5. Use UDC, BOP, or ICE tools only when the release or transfer path points to that system.

Carbon Jail Current-Only Record

The live table displays last name, first name, booking number, arrival, and three hold fields. Arrival means entry into the jail, not release. A hold indicates another legal or agency restraint may apply; it is not a release type. The page has no release timestamp, release reason, charge, photograph, destination, or custody history.

Carbon County posts no update cadence or retention window for removed rows. The table's browser configuration has no timed auto-refresh, but that says nothing about the source database or staff workflow. Its print, copy, Excel, and CSV controls export the same current rows. They cannot create a release archive. Comparing two saved copies may show that a row vanished, yet it cannot show when, why, or where the person went.

Open the official Carbon jail table to check the fields available for a current booking.

The official screen illustrates why a release search must move from the live table to a county record request once a row disappears.

Note: Carbon County publishes no official 24-hour list, 72-hour list, historical release archive, or sheriff inmate app.

Carbon County Jail Release Contact

The sheriff's jail is open around the clock, including holidays. That describes the facility, not a promise that records staff or release processing follow the same timetable. The sheriff business office operates Monday through Thursday and closes Friday through Sunday and holidays. Call the jail before traveling when timing, pickup, or a transfer is unclear.

The Carbon County Sheriff and Jail page is the official source for the address, jail phone, administration line, and posted hours. The county identifies Jeff Wood as sheriff, Cletis Steele as chief deputy, and Adam Cox as jail supervisor in its current pages and directory.

Review the official Carbon County Jail contact page before placing a call or visiting.

Request Carbon Jail Release Records

Carbon County appoints the County Clerk as records officer. A written GRAMA request can be filed online, in person, or by mail. The county's related records page also describes email, fax, and Utah Open Records Portal routes. Formal requests may be routed to the sheriff when that office holds the record.

Use a narrow request tied to one booking. Provide the full name, date of birth if known, booking number if known, and approximate booking and release period. Ask for admission time, actual release time, release disposition, releasing facility, destination or receiving agency if recorded, and hold or clearance entries. Carbon County has not published a sample release record, so this wording asks for existing fields without claiming that all are stored on one form.

The county says it will approve and provide a record within ten business days, deny it with an appeal route, explain that it cannot locate the record and refer elsewhere if known, or give a follow-up date when an immediate decision is not possible. Inspection is free. Copy, scan, and actual processing costs may apply, with the detailed county page noting processing cost after 15 minutes. No flat release-record price is posted.

Note: Ask for a fee estimate before a set limit and request the written classification and appeal basis if access is denied.

Why Carbon Jail History Matters

UDC's FY2024 Jail Programs report lists 85 male beds at Carbon County Jail. It lists zero contracted UDC beds and zero beds available for state use. The historical funding table says the prior state-inmate contract was not renewed in FY2020. These figures describe the county facility and contract history, not the current status of any named person.

The contract history matters when a state sentence appears in a Carbon County case. It does not support an assumption that the person routinely serves a UDC prison term at the Price jail. A short operational transfer or state-hold interaction can still occur. Once UDC accepts a person, search the statewide UDC and Board systems rather than treating the Carbon current-bookings page as the lasting state record.

Carbon Jail Transfer Records

A transfer closes or changes the county custody episode without releasing the person to the community. For state custody, UDC Offender Search covers people currently incarcerated or under active AP&P supervision. It excludes unsentenced county-jail detainees and fully discharged history. A UDC result may show location, assigned facility, and release date/type, though some fields can be blank or marked N/A.

For a federal sentence after 1982, the BOP Inmate Locator can show a release date and federal location. It should not be used for an ordinary Carbon County jail event. ICE has a separate detainee locator with exact-match and coverage limits. A missing ICE result cannot prove release. Federal pretrial custody may be managed by the U.S. Marshals Service, which has no public historical release locator; the federal docket and order become key.

The Carbon County release record should identify the destination or receiving agency if that field exists. Pair it with the receiving record. Court entries establish the legal outcome but may not state the exact physical handoff time. Keeping the county and receiving records together prevents a transfer from being mislabeled as a community release.

Carbon Jail Release-Day Details

No official Carbon source states routine release times, exit door, family waiting place, property-return order, weekend or holiday processing plan, gate money, or jail transportation. The jail being open 24 hours does not answer those questions. No fixed-route transit stop at the facility was verified. Families should call 435-636-3254 before driving to Price or arranging a pickup.

No Carbon-specific bond schedule or payment-method page was found online. The live table's hold fields are not bond fields. A court order, jail entry, and any applicable written policy govern the actual outcome. Utah law permits sheriff own-recognizance release only under a county written policy and excludes a person under a specified UDC hold, but Carbon's written policy was not located online.

Utah's county-jail credit statute may allow discretionary good-time credit for some qualifying sentences, subject to offense, judgment, and custodial limits. Carbon County posts no local calculator or written implementation policy. Do not calculate a release date from the statute alone. Confirm the actual release entry with the jail and use the court judgment to understand the sentence.

Carbon Jail Photo Records

The current Carbon bookings table has no photo column. A booking photograph must be requested through the county records route and remains subject to classification. Utah Code § 17-72-802 requires a person seeking a sheriff copy to sign an affirmation that the image will not be placed in a publish-for-pay publication or site. The sheriff may also withhold a protected record.

Ask for the photo by name, date of birth if known, booking number, and booking period. Carbon County does not post a set photo price or photo retention period. If the person later entered UDC, the state prison photograph is a different record held by a different agency. A photo does not establish a release date, release reason, or destination.

Note: Separate the image request from the release request so the county can classify and answer each existing record precisely.
