Reviewed and updated October 9, 2026 by the SearchSystems.net editorial team. The arrest and crime counts are the ones each agency reported to the FBI, as the FBI held them on October 8, 2026. Every office link was opened and checked against the office's own site between September 23, 2026 and September 30, 2026.
Mono County, California, has about 13,000 residents (2024 Census Bureau estimate). A police report belongs to the agency whose officer wrote it, so which office holds a report from Mono County depends on where the incident happened: the Mono County Sheriff's Office for the unincorporated county, the agency that reports for the city inside a city. This guide names each agency, where its records page is and what the California Public Records Act requires of it.
This guide covers which agency, the sheriff's reports, the cities' reports, how many reports, what the law requires and common questions.

Which Agency Holds a Report from Mono County
The report of an incident is released by the agency that took it; the court and the jail hold their own records of the same event, but not the report.
In Mono County that is the Mono County Sheriff's Office for the unincorporated county and for any city that contracts with it for police service, and the agency that reports for a city where the city has one of its own.
The FBI's list also places the Highway Patrol's Bridgeport, King City and Monterey Area Offices in Mono County; a report taken on a state highway by one of them comes from that agency's own records office.
Reports from the Mono County Sheriff's Office
The Mono County Sheriff's Office is the county agency; it had 11 violent and 19 property crimes reported for 2025 and reported 113 arrests for 2025.
Its reports come from its records unit. The office's page SearchSystems verified is its jail page, at monosheriff.citizenrims.com (page title: Mono County Sheriff's Department | Incarcerated People), which answered when SearchSystems opened it on September 23, 2026.

What the California Public Records Act Requires
Under the California Public Records Act the agency must answer a request within 10 days, with up to 14 more days in unusual circumstances, and it may charge the direct cost of copying only, not staff time. The request goes to the agency that holds the report, in writing, and does not have to say why the report is wanted.
Any other county record goes through the county records request page SearchSystems verified, at mono.courts.ca.gov/online-services/name-searches-and-records-requests (page title: Name Searches and Records Requests | Superior Court of California | County of Mono).
A defendant who has been charged gets the report through the case: the District Attorney, 760-924-1710, handles discovery for pending cases.
