Public-records systems don’t stand still. County portals get redesigned, court fees change, phone numbers get reassigned, and what was accurate six months ago can quietly go wrong. If you’ve spotted something on New Jersey Arrests that looks off — a broken link, an outdated number, a confusing step — please let us know. A quick report from you helps every reader who lands on that page after you.
What to report
Almost anything that doesn’t match reality is worth flagging. Common examples include:
- A link to a county or state records portal that is broken or redirects to the wrong place
- A phone number, mailing address, or office hours that no longer match what the agency lists
- A fee or processing time that has changed since we last verified it
- A step-by-step instruction that no longer reflects how the official process works
- A typo or wording that is genuinely confusing
To help us fix the issue quickly, include three things: the address of the page you were on, what looks wrong, and — if you have it — the correct information and where you saw it (for example, the official county clerk or court website). You don’t need to share your name or any personal details.
What we can fix — and what we can’t
We can fix anything wrong in our own guidance. A dead link, a stale fee, a wrong phone number, a step that no longer reflects how New Jersey’s records systems work — that’s exactly what the form above is for, and we take those reports seriously.
What we cannot do is change, remove, seal, or hide an official record. New Jersey Arrests is an informational guide. We do not hold, store, or control any arrest, court, or jail records. Those records belong to the agencies and courts that created them, and only those bodies have the authority to alter or seal them.
If your goal is to have a New Jersey arrest record sealed or cleared, that happens through the courts — not through us. The legal process is called regular expungement in New Jersey, and our New Jersey arrest records guide explains how that process works and where to begin. If we’ve gotten a detail about expungement wrong in that guide, please do report it and we’ll verify and correct it.
How we handle your report
Every report submitted through this form comes directly to the NJ Arrests Editorial Team. We do our best to review each one. When we can confirm an issue against the official primary source — the county portal, the court’s own page, or a state agency — we apply the correction. Most confirmed fixes go live within 48 hours. Some take longer, particularly when we need to call or write to an agency to verify a detail before we’re confident enough to change it.
We genuinely appreciate you taking the time. Accurate public-records information is only possible when readers flag what needs a second look — and that’s something no automated system can fully replace.
