Criminal Cases in the Carroll County Circuit Court
A criminal case from Berryville is filed in the Carroll County Circuit Court or the District Court, which takes misdemeanors, traffic cases and small claims, and the court file, kept by the Circuit Clerk, is the record of it that the public may see.

The Arkansas Criminal History and Your Own Copy
Arkansas is one of the states that lets anyone look up another person's statewide criminal history: the state runs an online name-based background check open to the public, through the Arkansas State Police. The result is the repository record, what agencies reported to the state, which is wider than one county's court index but can lag it.
To see your own record, the route is a request to the Arkansas State Police Identification Bureau. The state page SearchSystems verified for it is at dps.arkansas.gov/crime-info-support/arkansas-crime-information-cent....
Arrest Records Kept Locally in Berryville
The Carroll County Sheriff's Office and the agency that reports for Berryville (filed by the FBI as Berryville Police Department) keep the arrest records in and around Berryville: the report and the booking record of each arrest stay with the agency that made it, separate from the court file and from the state repository.
Together, the four agencies in Carroll County with all twelve months of 2025 on file reported 780 arrests to the FBI that year; how each case ended is in the court file, not in the arresting agency's.
The agencies and their counts, year by year, are in Berryville arrest records.

Asking an Agency in Carroll County for a Record
An arrest report, a booking record or a local criminal history letter comes from the agency that holds it, not from the court.
Under the Arkansas Freedom of Information Act a county office must answer a request within 3 working days when the record is not immediately available, and it may charge the actual cost of copying.
