Open Records Law in Tillman County

Oklahoma's Open Records Act protects your right to see booking releases in Tillman County. Title 51 O.S. Section 24A.1 says the people have a right to know what their government is doing. Section 24A.8 lists jail registers, arrest records, and booking data as records that must be open to the public. The Tillman County Sheriff's Office has to follow these rules like every other agency in the state.

You do not need to give a reason for requesting booking records. The law says anyone can ask. Agencies can charge a reasonable fee for copies but cannot charge you just to look at the records.

The Oklahoma Attorney General's Office enforces these rules and takes complaints if an agency denies access without a valid legal reason.
