Pershing County Jail Records Access
The local custody point is the Pershing County Sheriff's Office, which names Sheriff Jerry Allen and states that the office is responsible for the professional care and custody of people confined in the jail. The sheriff page gives the office at 395 9th St. in Lovelock and the main phone number, but it does not publish a separate detention bureau page, a jail capacity figure, a browser roster, a public booking sample, or a direct booking desk line. That gap matters. A name that does not appear online should not be treated as proof that the person was released or never booked.
The best Pershing County inmate records path is a chain. Use the official mobile app when mobile access is available. Call the sheriff for present custody, release, transfer, or records routing. Visit the sheriff's office if an in-person records request or custody inquiry is needed. File the sheriff public records request form when a document is required. Search the Nevada Department of Corrections offender search only when the person is a sentenced state prisoner, including a prisoner at Lovelock Correctional Center. Federal prisoners and immigration detainees are outside the Pershing County jail roster system.
Pershing County Inmate App Search
The official digital channel located in the research is the Pershing Sheriff, NV app page. The county says the free app includes Inmate Search, Most Wanted, Sex Offenders, Contact Us, Submit a Tip, social media, FAQs, and other sheriff information. The app landing page at OCV provides Apple App Store and Google Play links for the Pershing County Sheriffs Office app. The public web page does not expose the inmate-search form itself, so exact app fields, refresh times, release retention, and profile displays should not be assumed.
The county app is important because no official browser roster was found on the county site. A person doing a Pershing County inmate records search should treat the app as the first official digital try, then use the sheriff phone and records form if the app is unavailable or unclear. If the app shows a person, confirm bond, court date, release timing, or transfer details with the sheriff or the court that controls the case. App data can lag behind booking, court, or transport work.
- Open the official county app page or OCV landing page and install the Pershing Sheriff, NV app.
- Use the app's advertised Inmate Search feature if mobile access is available.
- If the person is not found, call the sheriff with the full name, date of birth, arrest date, and arresting agency if known.
- If written proof is needed, request the booking record, public report, or custody record through the sheriff public records form.
- If the person was sentenced to prison, switch to NDOC rather than the county jail search chain.
Pershing County Roster Fields
The official Pershing County web pages located in the research do not publish a browser-based jail roster search form. That means there are no confirmed web field labels for last name, first name, booking number, custody status, booking date, charge, housing unit, or release status. The app advertises an Inmate Search feature, but its public browser page does not show the form fields. The table below preserves that distinction so the Pershing County jail roster search is not overstated.
| Field Label | Type | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Pershing County web jail roster | Not published | Not applicable | No official browser roster form or public sample inmate profile was located. |
| Pershing Sheriff, NV app Inmate Search | Mobile app feature | Unspecified | The county advertises the feature, but search fields and result fields are not visible on the web page. |
| NDOC Offender ID | Text | Optional if demographics are used | Use for sentenced Nevada state prisoners, not most fresh county arrests. |
| NDOC First Name / Last Name | Text | Optional if offender ID is used | The NDOC search supports a percent wildcard in name fields. |
For current county custody, the sheriff's main number remains the practical fallback. The official site does not publish a separate 24-hour jail information line. Ask whether the person is held at the Pershing County Jail / Pershing County Sheriff's Office Detention, has been released, has been transferred, or must be searched through another agency.
Pershing County Inmate Record Fields
No official Pershing County browser profile was located, so a public profile field inventory cannot be described as if it exists online. The sheriff may still hold booking and jail records behind the scenes. A requester can ask for public portions of those records, subject to Nevada law, redaction, and custody of the record. Keep the request precise. Staff can search better when the request includes a full name, date of birth, approximate arrest date, arresting agency, incident number, or court case number.
| Field or Category | What It Shows |
|---|---|
| Name and date of birth | Core identifiers used to separate people with similar names. |
| Booking date and time | Intake timing, if it is part of the public booking record released by the sheriff. |
| Booking number | A jail tracking number, but no Pershing format was published in official web sources. |
| Arresting agency | May show PCSO, Lovelock Police, Nevada Highway Patrol, State Parks, wildlife officers, or another agency. |
| Charges | Initial booking charges, which can differ from prosecutor-filed court charges. |
| Bond or release status | Release conditions or holds, if public and current enough to release. |
| Mugshot or booking photo | No public Pershing mugshot roster was found; request photos through records if needed. |
The Pershing County jail mugshots page covers booking-photo access in more detail. For charges that have moved from jail intake to a court case, use Pershing County court records after jail arrest rather than treating a booking charge as the final court charge.
Pershing County Records Requests
The sheriff's public records request form is the key fallback when the app and phone call do not provide enough detail. The county document center links sheriff forms, including the public records request form and the public records fee-estimate form. The request form asks for the request date, requester name, organization, mailing address, phone, email, record description, format, delivery method, billing account number, and signature. It also has office-use fields for status, estimates, dates, denial, deposit, final payment, and completion notes.
Use plain terms in the request. Ask for a booking record, public arrest report, public incident report, jail custody record, booking photo, or release record. NRS Chapter 239 gives access to public records unless a law makes the record confidential, and NRS 239.0107 requires a response by the end of the fifth business day. Medical screening, juvenile details, confidential investigative data, and some classification material may still be redacted or denied with legal authority.
| Fee Item | Amount Listed |
|---|---|
| Research or data compiling | $25 per hour |
| Inspection | $25 per hour |
| Crime, crash, or coroner report | $15 each |
| Certified local records check | $15 each |
| Photo CD/DVD or 8x10 photo print | $10 each |
| Video redaction | $40 per hour |
| Mailing | Actual cost |
Pershing County Custody Facilities
Pershing County has two adult custody facilities that matter for inmate records, but they serve different roles. The county jail function is operated through the sheriff's office for local arrest, pretrial, and county-sentenced custody. Lovelock Correctional Center is an NDOC state prison in Pershing County for sentenced state prisoners. A person held at LCC will not be found through the local jail phone process unless the question is about a past local case or transfer.

Pershing County Jail Visit Records
Official Pershing County web sources did not publish a county jail visitation schedule, video visit vendor, mail format, phone-account vendor, commissary vendor, or money-deposit rule for the local jail. Call the sheriff before visiting, mailing property, sending funds, or driving from an outlying part of the county. Bring photo ID for in-person business, and do not bring weapons, contraband, recording devices, or unnecessary property into any sheriff or jail facility.
| Facility | Published Schedule | Best Next Step |
|---|---|---|
| Pershing County Jail / Sheriff's Office Detention | No official jail visit schedule located | Call (775) 273-2641 before appearing for a visit or custody question. |
| Lovelock Correctional Center | NDOC publishes facility-specific visiting information | Use the LCC visiting page for state-prison visits. |
NDOC visiting rules do not control ordinary Pershing County jail visits. LCC visiting requires state-prison procedures, while county jail visits depend on sheriff rules that were not posted in the official local web materials reviewed in the research.
Pershing County Jail Versus NDOC
Search location depends on custody type. A fresh arrest in Pershing County usually starts with local jail channels and the court path through Lake Township Justice Court. A sentenced Nevada prisoner moves into NDOC custody after conviction and commitment. Federal defendants are controlled by the U.S. Marshals Service before sentencing and by the Federal Bureau of Prisons after designation. Immigration detention uses ICE systems. These systems do not share one Pershing County inmate records database.
| Custody Type | Where to Search | What It Covers |
|---|---|---|
| Local pretrial or county jail custody | Pershing Sheriff app, phone, in person, records request | Recent local arrests, booking questions, release, transfer, and public jail records. |
| Sentenced Nevada state prisoner | NDOC offender search | State prison records, including prisoners housed at LCC. |
| Federal prison after sentencing | BOP inmate locator | Federal inmate records from 1982 to present. |
| Adult immigration detention | ICE Online Detainee Locator | ICE detainees and certain CBP custody over 48 hours. |
Custody distinction: Lovelock Correctional Center is in Pershing County, but it is a Nevada state prison. It is not the county jail roster for fresh local arrests.
Pershing County Custody Notifications
Nevada S.A.V.E. is the current Nevada custody-notification portal. It can help with release or transfer alerts where supported, including Pershing and NDOC context, but it is not the originating booking record. Use S.A.V.E. for notifications, then confirm case or custody details with the sheriff, court, NDOC, BOP, or ICE as the facts require. The Nevada S.A.V.E. support number for offline jails is 866-393-5445, and the support email is NVSave@ag.nv.gov.
- Booking
- Administrative intake after arrest, often including identity, property, fingerprints, photo, and initial charge basis.
- Detainer
- A hold request from another agency that may delay release even after local bail is addressed.
- Remand
- A court order sending a person back to custody.
- NDOC
- Nevada Department of Corrections, the state prison system for sentenced offenders.
Note: S.A.V.E. can send alerts, but booking records and court records still come from the agency that created them.
Pershing County Booking Timeline
Pershing-specific booking procedure details are limited, but local court pages define the early court track. After arrest or citation, a person may be transported and booked through the sheriff's jail function. Lake Township Justice Court says probable-cause determinations for arrested people are reviewed within 48 hours. The same court page says arraignments or advisements for arrested people occur within 72 hours. Felony and gross misdemeanor preliminary examinations occur within 15 days from arraignment or advisement, and those cases may be bound over to the Eleventh Judicial District Court.
Booking charges are not always the final court charges. The District Attorney decides what to prosecute. Misdemeanors stay in Justice Court. Felony and gross misdemeanor cases usually begin in Justice Court and may move to District Court after preliminary hearing. For a full record trail, search custody through the sheriff, then search charges through the court that has the case.
