Official Offices to Contact
Use the regional jail for current custody and jail services. Use Nicholas County law-enforcement or court offices for arresting-agency records, citations, dockets, and court-file questions. Written public-record requests in Kentucky generally rely on the Kentucky Open Records Act, including KRS 61.870 and KRS 61.872.
