Floyd County Inmate Search: Jail, Bond & Court Help

Floyd County, Indiana · Jail status, bond, court and family-service help

Confirm Floyd County Jail Status and Take the Correct Next Step

Floyd County does not require families to depend on a private people-search website. Start with the Sheriff’s official inmate-information page, call the automated inmate system or search the Indiana County Jail Public Portal.

This guide shows you how to identify the correct person, check the court case, understand the bond type, schedule a visit, add commissary money, address digital mail and continue the search after release or transfer.

Legal name Date of birth Approximate arrest time Arresting agency Booking or name number Case number
A booking is not a conviction. The jail record reflects custody or an allegation at a particular time. Charges, bond, holds, court settings and release status can change after the first hearing or later court action.
Address correction: The Sheriff’s current inmate-information page and current site footer identify the Floyd County Jail or headquarters at 175 West Spring Street, New Albany, IN 47150. An older Sheriff FAQ still references 311 Hauss Square for legal mail. Confirm the correct current address with Corrections before sending legal mail, money orders or travelling.

Why a Floyd County arrest may not appear yet

Booking is still being completed Transport, medical screening, identification and data entry may happen before public information appears.
The person was released quickly Search Indiana MyCase because a criminal case may exist after the person leaves jail.
The name format is different Try the surname alone, a former name, alternate spelling or name without punctuation.
The arresting agency used another jail Confirm whether the arrest occurred in Floyd, Clark, Harrison, Washington or another nearby jurisdiction.
The person was transferred Search Indiana DOC when state custody is possible.

Can you confirm whether the person is currently housed in Floyd County Jail and provide the public name number or booking identifier if available?
New arrest court timing: The Sheriff FAQ states that a newly arrested person generally attends court on the following business day. Treat this as routing guidance, not a guaranteed hearing time. Confirm the actual case and setting through MyCase or the Clerk.
Court date and case status

Find the Floyd County court case after booking

The jail provides custody information. Indiana MyCase is the better source for public court entries, hearings, charges filed with the court and later disposition.

Search with a case number

  1. Copy the entire case number from the jail information.
  2. Open Indiana MyCase.
  3. Select the case-number search.
  4. Enter the number without adding the person’s name.
  5. Confirm the case is filed in Floyd County.
  6. Review the chronological case summary and hearing entries.

  2. Check that the result is from Floyd County.
  3. Compare the filing date with the arrest date.
  4. Compare the displayed case type or charge.
  5. Do not combine information from same-name cases.

Use the Clerk for: certified copies, unavailable documents, filing questions and official court-record assistance.
Bond and release

Identify the Floyd County bond type before paying

Do not assume payment guarantees release. Another case, probation matter, warrant, detainer or agency hold can continue custody after a Floyd County bond is paid.

Court cash bond

  • Pay through the Floyd County Clerk during normal business hours.
  • Use the jail front lobby only after hours, on weekends or holidays when the Clerk is closed.
  • Confirm the exact total before arriving.
  • Ask whether another case or hold remains.

Full cash bond

The official page states that 100% of the bond amount is required.

  • Pay the Clerk during normal business hours.
  • Use the jail lobby only while the Clerk is closed.
  • The jail requires exact cash.
  • The jail cannot make change.
  • Coins are not accepted.

Surety bond

The official page describes surety as 10% paid to a bonding company.

  • Ask the jail whether the case permits a surety bond.
  • Request the current approved-agency list.
  • Confirm the bonding company’s fee and conditions.
  • Ask whether another hold affects release.

Rules for a qualifying after-hours jail payment

The Clerk’s Office must be closed.
Call before travelling.
Bring the exact cash amount.
Do not bring coins.
Bring valid government-issued identification.
Prepare all payee information.
Add the published $5 fee for each criminal case.

Mistake prevention

Practical Floyd County mistakes to avoid

Using the wrong Floyd County

Confirm Indiana, New Albany and the 812 area code. Search results often mix Indiana with Georgia, Iowa or Kentucky.

Using the older address automatically

Confirm whether the current service is handled at 175 West Spring Street or another county building.

Paying before checking holds

An outside detainer can prevent release after a local bond is paid.

Sending regular mail to the jail

Ordinary inmate mail goes to the Securus Digital Mail Center in Tampa.

Missing the name number

Use the exact booked name and name number on mail and service accounts.

Expecting a refund from the jail

Review provider policies and confirm the inmate before paying.

Discussing case facts on video

Ordinary video visits are monitored and recorded.

Treating a charge as a conviction

Use the later court record for amendments, dismissal, plea or disposition.

Payment-scam warning: Do not send gift cards, cryptocurrency, wire transfers or payment-app funds to someone who claims an urgent payment will clear a warrant or guarantee release. Confirm the case and payment route through the official jail, Clerk or court.

Floyd County inmate search FAQs

How do I find out if someone is in Floyd County Jail?

Call the Floyd County Jail automated information system at 812-948-5406 and select option 2. You can also search the Indiana County Jail Public Portal by selecting Floyd County and entering the person’s legal name. Confirm the name, date of birth, booking details and current custody status before relying on a match.

Does Floyd County have an online inmate roster?

Floyd County directs families to its official inmate-information page and automated information system. The Indiana County Jail Public Portal also allows a public search by county, last name, first name and birth date. Call 812-948-5406 when a very recent arrest or urgent status is not clear online.

Why is a recent Floyd County arrest not showing?

The person may still be transported or processed, may be listed under a different name format, may have been released quickly, or may be held by another county or agency. Search with fewer fields, confirm the arresting agency and call the automated inmate line if the matter is urgent.

How do I check a Floyd County inmate’s court date?

Use Indiana MyCase and search by the exact case number when available. If you only have a name, verify Floyd County, the filing date and the charge before opening a result. The Sheriff FAQ states that a newly arrested person generally attends court on the following business day, but the court or Clerk should confirm the actual setting.

How do I pay a bond at Floyd County Jail?

First confirm whether the bond is a court cash bond, full cash bond or surety bond. The Clerk accepts eligible payments during business hours. The jail accepts qualifying payments only when the Clerk is closed and requires exact cash, no coins, valid government identification and the published five-dollar criminal-case bond fee.

How do I schedule a Floyd County inmate visit?

Floyd County uses Securus video visitation. Each inmate may receive one free 30-minute onsite visit per month on Saturday or Sunday when available. Paid video visits are available daily from 8:00 a.m. to 9:30 p.m. and must be scheduled and paid at least 24 hours in advance.

How do I send regular mail to a Floyd County inmate?

Address regular mail to the inmate’s name and name number, care of Securus Digital Mail Center – Floyd County Jail, PO Box 21768, Tampa, Florida 33622. Regular mail is scanned and screened before being delivered electronically to the inmate.

How do I add commissary money for a Floyd County inmate?

Use the Tiger deposit service linked from the Sheriff inmate-information page, the 24-hour lobby kiosk, or a permitted money order or cashier’s check. Confirm current custody and the correct inmate before paying, review the service fee and save the confirmation number.

When can Floyd County inmate property be picked up?

The Sheriff states that inmate property may be released seven days a week outside normal business hours, before 8:00 a.m. or after 4:00 p.m. No property is released during regular business hours. The recipient needs valid state-issued identification and the inmate must agree to release the items.

What should I do if the person was transferred from Floyd County Jail?

Check Indiana VINE for available custody notifications and search the Indiana Department of Correction locator when a state transfer is possible. Use the federal inmate locator only when federal custody is involved. Continue checking Indiana MyCase because the court case can remain active after release or transfer.
