About Idaho Open Public Records
The Idaho Legislature affirmed the state's commitment to open government by enacting it's Public Records Law in 1990. The law protects each citizen's right to monitor the actions of state and local government entities by providing access to governmental records. Requests for public documents are handled by the individual public agencies which maintain the documents being sought. There are certain exceptions which include but are not limited to juvenile records, law enforcement investigations and court records that would result in the release of confidentiality. The state of Idaho has 44 counties and 1,242 populated places including cities, towns, neighborhoods, subdivisions and settlements. There are 200 incorporated cities. The Idaho state police Bureau of Criminal Identification is the criminal history repository. Idaho law authorizes the provision of criminal history information for non-criminal justice purposes such as employment screening and licensure.

  • Where can I find in Idaho state police arrest records, and is there a fee?
    Arrest reports/crash reports from the ISP have fees. Some departments make an exception for people directly related to the report. You need to know which department made the arrest. If the ISP made the arrest, their records division should have a report. However, if a local department took the report, that individual department needs to be contacted. This is not to say that the police can not access it remotely, but that particular agency needs to be contacted for others. Many police reports have online forms and request procedures to follow.

  • Where can I find out how I file a complaint about a judge in Idaho?
    I know this question was a long time ago this year, but I want to answer this as I have, in the past, had to fire a public defender. You file your complaint against a prosecutor or a judge in the same as you would fire your public defender. Start by calling the court clerk's office and asking; they will have a specific address to which you must send your letter and complaint for review and to be on actual record or file. Then you write the letter with your complaint or complaints and mail it to the address the court clerk gives you, and bam. It's done, and the complaint filed is put on record. I was unsure how to fire a public defender, but I knew that you could, and there was a way, so I just called the clerk once, and they told me. I even requested a new defender in the same letter and ended up with a damn good one. I hope you found a way back when you asked, but this information is from my experience in the past. Best wishes, and I hope you can get it all taken care of now.
