Official Offices and Record Paths
Montcalm County release questions go to different offices based on the most recent custodian and the record needed. The Sheriff’s Office is at 659 N State Street, Stanton, MI 48888, and can be reached at 989-831-7590 or faxed at 989-831-7420, Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. The Montcalm County Jail is at 649 N State Street, Stanton, MI 48888. Its automated custody status line is 989-831-7592, and its fax is 989-831-7431. Sheriff release records are requested through the county FOIA Coordinator rather than pulled by this site.

For an existing booking or release record, email foia@montcalmcountymi.gov, call 989-831-7300, fax 989-831-7375, or write the Montcalm FOIA Coordinator, P.O. Box 368, Stanton, MI 48888.

The 64B District Probation Department at 617 N State Street handles misdemeanor probation at 989-831-7434 or probation@montcalmcountymi.gov. The Parole & Probation resource explains the split.
- Recent county release: Montcalm County does not post a public recent-release feed. Use the jail status line and MI-VINE, then seek the release record if an exact timestamp is needed. The 24-Hour Release List page gives the same-day fallback without claiming a county feed exists.
- Release date or alert: The Projected Release Date resource separates a projected state date from an actual departure. MI-VINE provides county and state custody notices at 800-770-7657, with TTY at 866-847-1298. The VINELink Check explains person-level search and alert registration.
- Court or facility record: Call 64B District Court at 989-831-7450, 617 N State Street in Stanton, for misdemeanor disposition and preliminary felony events; the court is open weekdays from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. The 8th Circuit Court Clerk at 639 N State Street, 989-831-3520, handles felony judgments and sentence records. For a facility-specific custody route, use the Montcalm County Jail or Carson City Correctional Facility page listed in the footer.
- Michigan state prisoner or discharge: Search the official MDOC OTIS locator. For a formal state-prison release, parole, discharge, or photograph record, email MDOC-FOIA@michigan.gov, call 517-335-4194, fax 517-335-4193, or write MDOC FOIA Coordinator, P.O. Box 30003, Lansing, MI 48909. MDOC records office hours are weekdays from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.
- Federal or immigration custody: Search the official BOP Inmate Locator for a federal sentence. For immigration detention, use the ICE Online Detainee Locator. Michigan is served by the Detroit ERO office at 313-771-6601; the ICE Detention Reporting and Information Line is 888-351-4024. Those systems are separate from Montcalm County Jail and MDOC.
