Police Records

The Records Section is the central repository for all documents created as a result of law enforcement activities. Records are processed and disseminated to both law enforcement personnel and the public.

Units

The Records Section of the Pembroke Pines Police Department consists of three units:

• The Records Unit, which provides records and retrieval services
• The Case Filing Unit, which prepares all documents necessary
  for the presentation of cases for prosecution to the Broward
  State Attorney’s Office
• The Court Liaison Unit, which is responsible for all court related
  matters as well as assuring that all traffic citations are processed
