Fingerprinting for Criminal Charges

You need to bring either a copy of the criminal complaint of the fingerprint order with you to the New Castle City Police Station in order to be fingerprinted.  If the charge is Retail Theft, you MUST bring a fingerprint order with you.  The fingerprint offered is issued to you by the Magistrates’ office.  On all other charges, if you were issued a fingerprint order, you should bring this with you.  If you do not have the order, then you MUST bring a copy of the Criminal Complaint.
