Border Jurisdiction Notes

San Luis is on the Mexico border. This location creates unique law enforcement considerations. Federal agencies like Border Patrol operate in the area. Federal arrests are handled separately from city and county bookings.

If you cannot find someone in the Yuma County system, the arrest may have been federal. Federal detainees go to different facilities and have different records systems. Contact the Federal Bureau of Prisons or U.S. Marshals Service for federal custody inquiries.

The international border also means some incidents involve Mexican law enforcement. Those cases fall outside Arizona's jurisdiction entirely. If the incident occurred in Mexico, Arizona systems will not have records.

Two Types of Records

The jail booking record comes from Yuma County. The arrest report comes from San Luis Police. These are separate documents from separate agencies. The booking record shows jail intake information: name, charges, booking date, and bail amount. San Luis Police create the arrest report with details about what happened.

Both documents may be needed for complete information about a San Luis arrest. Request the booking record from Yuma County. Request the arrest report from San Luis Police. Neither agency can provide the other's document.

Court Cases After Booking

San Luis Municipal Court handles misdemeanor cases and traffic violations from within city limits. Contact the court for case information. More serious felony charges go to Yuma County Superior Court. The Superior Court handles all serious criminal matters regardless of which agency made the arrest.

Court records are separate from both the booking record and the police arrest report. They track legal proceedings after charges are filed. One arrest generates records in three systems.

Nearby Arizona Areas

Yuma is the other major city in Yuma County. Both cities use the same county jail system. Yuma is about 25 miles north of San Luis. The detention center is in Yuma, so San Luis arrestees are transported there for booking.

Phoenix is about 180 miles northeast in Maricopa County. It is a completely different jurisdiction. The drive takes roughly three hours on Interstate 8 through Yuma.
