Our district offices
If you want to view physical copies of the court record, you are welcome to visit one of our district offices . If you know what documents you’d like to look at, let us know in advance so that we have them ready for when you arrive.
You can contact any office of the court to seek
copies; however, if these are not available in the
court’s document management system, you will need
to contact the office in which those records are
located so they can review the physical file and
where possible copy the physical record.
