The names of the parties and the case number can be found in the case records, as well as information on release dates, the date of finalization, court orders, and the divorce decree, including the settlement of property division, support, and custody.

The county processes hundreds of divorce cases each year, including both uncontested and contested filings. Members of the public may obtain divorce records from the court clerk’s office and request certified copies. In some cases, recent filings may be available online through court portals.
