The NJ Courts Criminal Division records-room directory lists Atlantic County Criminal Records Room at 4997 Unami Blvd, Mays Landing, NJ 08330, phone 609-909-8147. This is the Superior Court criminal-file route for Atlantic County.
The NJ Courts Criminal Practice Division identifies Promis/Gavel public access as the public criminal case tracking lookup. It exposes limited public criminal-case information; confidential or nonpublic material is not transformed into a public record merely because a case exists.
The NJ Judiciary Records Request Form (CN 10200) supports pickup, mail, on-site inspection, fax, or email delivery and asks for the processing county/division. For criminal matters, provide the docket/complaint number when known. If unknown, the form asks for defendant name/aliases, date of birth, and last four digits of SSN when available, plus indictment/arrest/sentencing details that can narrow the file.
Confirm Superior Court versus municipal court before submitting the request.
Include docket/complaint number or defendant identifiers and case-event clues when the docket is unknown.
Select plain copy, seal, certified, or exemplified only as required by the recipient.
CN 10200 lists copy fees of $0.05 per letter-size page and $0.07 per legal-size page. It also provides separate selections for seal, certified-with-seal, certified-without-seal, and exemplified copies and warns that special-copy requests carry additional fees. For non-tax requests, the form directs return through the Judiciary Electronic Documents Submission system (JEDS).
A disorderly-persons, traffic, ordinance, or other municipal matter may be in a municipal court rather than the Atlantic County Superior Court Criminal Division. Use the case information to identify the court before ordering; do not treat a Superior Court records-room search as exhaustive of all municipal matters.
Superior Court records answer what happened in a specific court case. A repository background check is a different product maintained outside the court records room. Likewise, police reports and jail/custody records come from their own custodians.
Use the Judiciary request disposition and the records room to learn whether the item is unavailable, confidential, sealed, or held elsewhere. A missing online entry is not enough to conclude that no criminal record exists.
