Official Colfax County records must be requested from the office that created or keeps them. The sheriff and two court locations use different counters, phone lines, and schedules. The contacts below route a request to the proper government custodian in Raton or Springer. This private site cannot retrieve, alter, certify, or file a record.

This Is Not a Government Office. We operate a private reference site. We cannot conduct an official check, obtain or correct a record, or accept an expungement filing.

Need an Official Record?

Use the source tied to the record. Colfax County's main criminal-justice offices share a Raton address, but their files are not interchangeable.

  • District Court criminal files: Eighth Judicial District Court, 1413 S. Second St., Raton, NM 87740; 575-445-5584; Monday-Friday, 8 a.m.-4 p.m., open at lunch

  • State arrest-record self-review: New Mexico Department of Public Safety, Law Enforcement Records Bureau, through its notarized Authorization for Release process
  • City police reports: request the file from the city agency that created it, not from the county sheriff

The sheriff does not publish a separately named records division, fee sheet, or online copy portal. For a sheriff-created report, call or email the Sheriff's Office and identify the incident number, date range, place, agency, and record type. A written request may use the New Mexico Inspection of Public Records Act when needed. Court documents belong with the judicial clerk, and statewide arrest compilations belong with NMDPS.
