What Union Parish Booking Records Show

Union Parish booking records are public under Louisiana Revised Statute 44:3(4)(a), which makes the booking of a person under Louisiana Code of Criminal Procedure Article 228 a public document. The public portion of a booking record includes the person's name and identifying information, the charges filed, the booking date and time, and the location of the alleged offense.

The LAVINE roster provides current custody status and basic booking data for Union Parish detainees. Records tied to active investigations and pending criminal litigation are not public under R.S. 44:3. Those portions can be withheld by the sheriff's office while cases remain open.

Note: A booking records an arrest, not a conviction. Everyone held at the Union Parish Jail is presumed innocent unless a court determines otherwise.
