Before Your First Visit to Cross County: Common Forms and Service Fees to Know

Need to pick up paperwork or get help in person? The Cross County Sheriff's administrative office is at 1600 South Falls Blvd, Wynne, AR 72396. Office hours are 8:00am–4:00pm - that's your best window for form-related questions or anything that requires staff at a desk.

For general questions, call the Cross County Sheriff's Office at 870-238-5700. It's listed as a 24-hour line, so it's a good starting point if you want to confirm what you need before making the drive.

Many Sheriff's Office forms are posted online through their public-forms resources. This can help you figure out which document you need before showing up. Not sure you're looking at the right form? Call the main line or stop by the administrative office during business hours.

One form you may encounter is the Juvenile Affidavit. It establishes probable cause that a juvenile committed a crime and requires them to report to the Juvenile Officer.

There's also the Criminal Summons form. After an Incident Report has been filed with the Cross County Sheriff's Office, this form summons someone to District Court for a misdemeanor that wasn't committed in an officer's presence.

These aren't the only public-facing forms you might need. If your situation doesn't match either example, check the Sheriff's Office public-forms list for other options. Call 870-238-5700 to ask where a form should be submitted and whether there are any requirements to complete it.

Dealing with an eviction for non-payment of rent? The Sheriff's Office guidance focuses on serving the notice. The renter must be served in person with an Eviction Notice - either by the landlord or by a Sheriff's Deputy.

Having a Sheriff's Deputy serve the Eviction/Notice to Vacate costs $30.00. If you're budgeting for next steps, this is one of the most common fees people run into.

Need a copy of an accident report? The fee is $10.00. Call ahead to confirm what information you'll need to request the right report.

Watch the clock on District Court paperwork. Certain trial or plea request forms must be filed 48 hours before the court date on your ticket. Don't wait until the day before and assume you can still submit in time.
