Find Plaquemines Parish Detention Center Releases

PPSO Detention Center Release Paths

The PPSO Detention Center in Davant can hold local pretrial detainees, locally sentenced people, transferees, and people committed to Louisiana DPS&C who are housed in a parish facility. Those groups do not share one release path. A local detainee may leave on bond, a court order, completion of a local term, or another lawful basis. PPSO’s release entry should show when its custody ended and whether the person went to the community or another authority.

A DPS&C-sentenced person can change buildings without leaving state legal custody. In that case, a PPSO movement or transfer is followed through the statewide DPS&C locator. A federal writ, USMS hold, or ICE detainer can also produce a transfer. Ask for the receiving agency and transfer date. Do not convert “transferred” or “released to detainer” into a community release.

Confirm a Davant Jail Release

The Plaquemines LAVNS portal provides a named-person status check supplied by participating agencies. It can reveal a custody change, but it is not a chronological release list. A disappearance from the current population proves no particular outcome. Keep the exact status, access time, and identifiers, then reconcile them with PPSO and the 25th JDC.

1. Search Plaquemines LAVNS with a full name or known identifier and compare identity details.
2. Call Intake and Booking to ask whether the known episode ended by community release or transfer, subject to disclosure rules.
3. Use the PPSO written portal to request the booking sheet, release entry, release authorization, and destination field.
4. Search the Plaquemines Clerk criminal index for the related bond order, disposition, sentence, or commitment.
5. If the record shows DPS&C, federal, or ICE custody, continue with that jurisdiction’s official locator.

The full Plaquemines Parish release-record search explains each jurisdiction. For this facility, the PPSO entry remains the best evidence of the physical exit from parish custody. The court record explains the legal cause, and the next agency confirms whether custody continued.

PPSO Detention Records and Contacts

PPSO’s current Corrections page gives the operational address below. The DPS&C parish directory separately lists 110 Prison Road in the Davant/Braithwaite area. Because the official directories do not match, use the sheriff’s operational page and telephone confirmation before travel. The listed numbers are operational contacts, not a promise that staff will disclose restricted details by phone.

Documentary proof uses the PPSO written records portal. Name the custody episode and ask for existing records, not a new explanation. Electronic copies are the most direct format. PPSO processes during regular business days and strives to report request status within five days, which is not a production deadline.

About the Davant Detention Center

PPSO calls the site both the Detention Center and Correctional Center. Its official page says the current facility opened on February 11, 2015. The building is elevated more than 18 feet and lies inside the federal hurricane protection levee system. PPSO identifies Denise Narcisse as warden. These details help distinguish the Davant jail from PPSO administration and the Belle Chasse Lockup.

Capacity does not reveal today’s population or the number of annual releases. The center’s size also does not show whether a named person is a local detainee or a state prisoner housed locally. Legal custody must be verified from the PPSO, court, or DPS&C record tied to that individual.

Davant Release Times and Property

PPSO does not publish release-processing hours, a public exit door, a family waiting area, a weekend policy, transportation instructions, or a property-pickup procedure. Those are real unknowns. The Corrections page also displays a no-outside-visitors notice, so family members should not assume they can enter the center and wait.

Call Intake and Booking before traveling. Ask whether release has been entered, whether another hold remains, and where operational directions can be obtained. Louisiana’s booking rule makes the property-taken list part of the booking entry, which gives a released person a document to request when property is disputed. Ask PPSO for that existing booking/property record rather than guessing about local pickup practice.

Note: No public release schedule means a court order and an expected ride time should never be treated as the same event.

Davant Local and State Custody

A person can be physically in Davant while legally committed to Louisiana DPS&C. That distinction changes the locator, date calculation, and post-release trail. Local pretrial detention has no projected sentence-release calculation because bond and court action control the exit. A sentenced state prisoner may have a projected date computed by DPS&C, along with good-time rules, parole action, and an assigned supervision office.

For state status, follow the DPS&C offender-search route into LAVNS or call the automated locator with the required identifiers. A projected date is not proof of departure. After physical release, the person may still appear under probation or parole supervision. Full discharge is a separate status.

The state locator can return a facility assignment and a projected release date when applicable. DPS&C says a new sentence may have no calculated date until official sentencing papers arrive and time computation is complete. Credits, court amendments, consecutive or concurrent terms, discipline, parole action, and detainers can change a future date. When the date matters, record its exact label and access date, then verify the actual release through the agency event.

A local pretrial case follows a different rule. There is no sentence-based projected date to calculate before conviction and sentence. Bond, a court order, a prosecutor’s action, or another legal event controls the local exit. Search the 25th JDC docket for that authority and PPSO for the physical release. Applying a state good-time percentage to a pretrial Davant detainee would mix two separate systems.

PPSO Davant Directory Evidence

The PPSO office directory supplies current facility and agency contact information used to distinguish detention operations from Belle Chasse administration. That routing matters because the physical jail, the sheriff’s administrative office, and the Clerk serve different record functions. Corrections and Intake answer operational questions. The online request channel handles documentary PPSO records. The Clerk holds the court docket.

The directory confirms why a caller should select the detention or booking line instead of assuming the administrative office holds live release details. When requesting proof, describe the record by function: booking sheet for entry, release entry for the exit, release authorization for the basis, and destination field for a transfer. If a document is withheld, ask for the statute supporting that decision and any reasonably separable public part.

An old release may no longer appear in a live person search. PPSO has not published an online retention guarantee. For a historic Davant stay, search the 25th JDC criminal index for the durable case record, then request the exact PPSO custody event. Expungement or sealing can limit public access, so an empty search must remain inconclusive unless an official source explains it.

PPSO’s March 2026 fee schedule lists several record categories but no universal flat price for a release log. Ask for an estimate and electronic delivery. A booking photograph is a separate record request, and a release record should not be delayed by an unnecessary photo request. Keeping the requested documents narrow also helps the custodian identify existing records without creating a custom report.
