The primary county counter for Sheriff's Office reports and local checks is the Manatee County Sheriff's Office Records Section at the Operations Center address above. Court copies and certified judgments come from the Manatee Clerk instead, so those requests should go to the Historic Courthouse in downtown Bradenton.
