Official routes for a Real County record
Start a county custody or booking question with Sheriff Nathan T. Johnson’s Real County Sheriff’s Office. The published non-emergency line is 830-232-5201. The Sheriff lists a mailing address of P.O. Box 445, Leakey, TX 78873-0445, and directs visitors to the Real County Courthouse at 146 Highway 83 South, Leakey, TX 78873. The facility is commonly referred to as Real County Jail in secondary guides. Call before visiting. The county does not publish separate records-unit telephone hours or an official online booking roster.
For a written Public Information Act request, use the county’s published contact procedure: mail P.O. Box 446, Leakey, TX 78873; fax 830-232-6040; use the county’s authorized email route; or deliver it to the County Judge’s Office at the courthouse. Identify the Sheriff or jail record and the relevant name and date range.
- For a booking record, custody status, or a photograph if maintained and releasable, use the county records hub and the Sheriff or PIA route.
- For a possible warrant, ask the Sheriff how it handles active-warrant verification, then use the Most Wanted page for the safe verification path.
- For a filed case or final outcome, contact the District/County Clerk at 830-232-5202 or realcl@hctc.net. The county court contact is 830-232-5304 and realjudge@hctc.net.
- For Texas state-system custody after a county transfer or sentence, use the TDCJ Inmate Search.
- For federal custody, use the Bureau of Prisons locator; for qualifying immigration custody, use the ICE Online Detainee Locator.
