Iberville Parish Clerk of Court Criminal Case Files
The Clerk of Court for Iberville Parish maintains official records for all cases heard in the 18th Judicial District Court. This includes felony indictments, misdemeanor filings, and any other criminal matters processed through the court.

The clerk's office in Plaquemine is where you go to search case dockets, pull documents, or request certified copies. Staff can search by name or case number.
Criminal case records in Louisiana fall under the Louisiana Public Records Law, La. R.S. 44:1 and La. R.S. 44:32. Most criminal court files are public documents. You do not need to provide a reason or show standing to access them. Records involving juveniles, sealed cases, or certain sensitive matters may be restricted. If a record has been expunged, it will not appear in standard court searches. Certified copies carry an official stamp and cost more than plain photocopies, but they may be required for legal or official purposes.

How to Search Iberville Parish Criminal History
The most direct way to search Iberville Parish criminal records is to contact the Clerk of Court in Plaquemine. Bring the full name of the person and a date of birth if you have it. The clerk can search the 18th Judicial District's records and tell you what charges were filed, how the case ended, and what court dates were set. For a quick check on active arrest warrants, the Sheriff's Office is the right call.
For a statewide criminal history check, individuals go through the Louisiana State Police Bureau of Criminal Identification and Information (BCII). BCII manages the LACCH database under LA R.S. 15:587. Individuals can request their own record under the Right to Review process in LA R.S. 15:588. The cost is $26 by mail or $41 in person. Both options require a $5 technology fee added as of December 1, 2024, under LA R.S. 15:587 D(1). Payment must be by money order or cashier's check. The BCII office is at 7919 Independence Blvd, Baton Rouge, open Monday through Friday, 7:30 AM to 3:30 PM. The phone is (225) 925-6096. Mail requests go to P.O. Box 66614 Mail Slip A-6, Baton Rouge, LA 70896 and take 15 to 21 business days to process. In-person fingerprint appointments are made at uenroll.identogo.com.
Louisiana is a closed record state. BCII records are not open to the general public for checking on someone else. Only the subject of the record, authorized businesses, and qualifying entities under state law can access the LACCH database. Authorized agencies use the IBC portal at ibc.dps.louisiana.gov. This page is for reference purposes only.
Note: Iberville Parish has no separate municipal court for most of its communities. Most criminal matters go directly to the 18th Judicial District Court in Plaquemine.
