Cass County Police Records Requests Under APRA

Indiana Code IC 5-14-3 is the law that covers public records access in Indiana. It says any person can request records from a public agency. You do not need to be a resident of Cass County. You do not need to give a reason. The law applies equally to everyone who asks.

When you contact the Cass County Sheriff's Office for records, provide the type of record (incident report, arrest log, etc.), the date or date range, the names of people involved, and any case number if you have it. A complete request is processed faster than a vague one. You can submit by phone, email to adam.morrow@co.cass.in.us, or in person at 100 Court Park, Logansport.

The office must respond within 7 days. That response could be the records themselves, a partial production with an explanation for what was withheld, or a written denial that names the applicable IC 5-14-3 exemption. Active investigations, juvenile records, and protected personal data are the most common reasons for denial or redaction.

Fees for records are set by the office and must be paid before records are released. Call or email ahead to get an estimate if the fee matters to you. For straightforward copies, the cost is generally low. More complex requests that require extended staff time may carry higher fees under the state's fee guidelines.
