1. How can I get copies of Civil and Criminal records?

All court cases except Juvenile are public record. Copies are $0.50 per page and certified copies are $5 plus $0.50 for each page.

2. Will the court appoint an attorney for me?

The court does not appoint attorneys in civil cases. In criminal cases, if you are financially unable to hire an attorney, you may apply for a court appointed attorney. At the arraignment, the Judge will require you to fill out an affidavit of indigency. The Judge will review your affidavit and determine, by the appropriate financial guideline, your eligibility for a public defender.

3. Can the clerk reset cases or jail time?

No. The clerk does not have the authority to reset cases or jail time. You will have to contact your attorney or the Judge to have your case reset or to have jail time rescheduled.
