What This Midland Guide Covers
Michigan FOIA can provide access to many public records, but the source depends on the stage of a case. The Midland County Sheriff’s Office operates the county jail and its current-custody roster. The Michigan Department of Corrections maintains OTIS for state prisoners and people under listed supervision, while MiCOURT follows a case after booking. This guide explains those separate routes, including the county’s records-request process when a current roster result is not enough. It hosts no photographs or roster entries.
