Luzerne County does not use one sheriff records counter for every criminal file. The Clerk holds court records, Corrections holds booking material, and each police agency retains its own report. District Attorney RTKL requests go to Carl Frank, Assistant DA/Open Records Officer, 200 North River Street, Wilkes-Barre, PA 18711, at DARighttoKnow@luzernecounty.org.
