Subpoena Police Records

A non-refundable $15.00 processing fee is required before a subpoena for records can be served on the Sacramento Police Department. This fee must be paid in person to the City Revenue Division located on the 1st floor of New City Hall at 915 I St.

Once the service fee has been paid, the subpoena and the receipt for payment of the fee must be hand delivered to the Sacramento Police Department’s Court Liaison Office located at 300 Richards Blvd. Enter the lobby on the first floor and use the phone provided to dial the Court Liaison Unit, a speed dial option and an employee will assist you. Security is also available to further direct you.

Subpoenas cannot be mailed, faxed or dropped off directly to any other location other than the Sacramento Police Department facility located at 300 Richards Blvd. For additional questions or assistance with the subpoena process for police records contact the Court Liaison Unit at 916-808-0303. You may mail your subpoena, along with a check for the $15.00 processing fee made out to the City of Sacramento, to the following address:
