Indiana Courts MyCase
After an arrest in Fishers leads to criminal charges, the case enters the Hamilton County court system. All cases are searchable for free at public.courts.in.gov/mycase.
Search by the person's name, case number, or attorney. MyCase shows the full docket: charges filed, hearing dates, motions, and case outcomes. New filings generally appear within one to two business days of the initial court appearance.
Sealed records and juvenile cases are not included. Most adult criminal cases are open to public view from the date the case was first filed. Use the case number in the search for the most direct results.
What Arrest Records Contain
Under IC 5-14-3-5, Indiana law makes certain arrest information public. Agencies must disclose the name of the person arrested, the offense charged, the date and location of arrest, and the arresting officer. This cannot be withheld from the public.
Bond amounts, booking photos, and full charge descriptions usually appear on the jail roster within a few hours. If the record is incomplete when you first check, try again later in the day after booking staff have had time to process the entry.
Keep in mind: an arrest does not mean a person is guilty. Cases can be dismissed, reduced, or result in acquittal. To see what happened after the arrest, search MyCase for the court record.
ISP Limited Criminal History
The Indiana State Police offers a free statewide criminal history search at in.gov/ai/appfiles/isp-lch2. The Limited Criminal History (LCH) database pulls from court-reported dispositions across all Indiana counties.
It is a good tool for checking someone's prior criminal record in Indiana. It is not a real-time arrest tracker. New arrests may not appear for days or weeks. For current booking status, use the Hamilton County inmate search.
The LCH does not show arrests that were dismissed before charges were filed. It reflects what was reported to the state, which is generally final court dispositions.
VINE Notification Service
VINE is a free custody alert system. Register at vinelink.com or call 1-866-959-VINE anytime. Pick the person you want to track, provide your contact details, and the system notifies you when they are released, transferred, or escape.
VINE covers Hamilton County Jail and all Indiana DOC facilities. The service is free. Anyone can register, not just crime victims. Alerts go out by phone, text, or email depending on your preference.
