This Is Not a Government Office. Chippewa County Criminal History is privately operated and has no affiliation with Chippewa County, a Michigan court, law enforcement, or any state agency. We cannot obtain an official file, conduct a government criminal-history check, correct or remove a record, or receive a Michigan set-aside filing. The responsible public office must handle each of those tasks.
Need an Official Record?
Choose the record holder before making a request. A court case file, an officer’s report, a booking entry, and an MSP criminal-history response are separate products. These routes cover the records most often requested in Chippewa County:
- Police and incident reports: ask the law-enforcement agency that created the report
- Arrest, booking, jail, and Sheriff records: use the Chippewa County Sheriff’s business office or corrections line
- Court files: review the Chippewa County court case lookup process, then contact the clerk that heard that stage
- Michigan criminal-history records: use the Michigan State Police Criminal Justice Information Center and ICHAT
- Fingerprint-based personal record review: follow the Michigan State Police RI-008 process through an authorized fingerprint channel
- Set-aside matters: file through the Michigan court of conviction under the current court procedure
