Powhatan County uses a regional jail, so no single office holds every part of a case. Pamunkey Regional Jail keeps the jail booking and release record. The Powhatan County Sheriff may hold the arresting-agency record. VADOC maintains state custody, discharge, and supervision information, while the court clerks hold case orders and dispositions. Use the contact that matches the question.
