Not a Court or Government Office. We cannot retrieve records, change a hearing date, issue a certified copy, remove a case, or provide legal advice. Direct those requests to the appropriate Perry County clerk or court.
Need an Official Docket or Record?
Start with the court that holds the matter. The record type and court name, not the town where a person lives, determine the proper office. Have the case or citation number, party name, court, approximate filing date, and the type of copy or date confirmation needed.
- Circuit felony or civil docket: contact the Perry County Circuit Clerk or use MEC/PAMEC where the electronic record is available.
- Chancery family, probate, or equity record: contact the Perry County Chancery Clerk; district settings are handled through the Tenth Chancery process.
- Justice Court traffic, misdemeanor, or small-claims record: contact Justice Court Clerk Teresa Watford.
- Municipal ticket or ordinance case: contact the city court or town clerk listed on the citation.
- Certified copy: ask the clerk that owns the case, then confirm the current fee and payment method before sending payment.
