Official DeKalb County court dockets and case records must come from the clerk or court that holds them. The contact route depends on whether the matter is in Circuit Court, District Court, a Municipal Court, Probate Court, or federal court. The information below directs common requests to the DeKalb County Circuit Clerk while making clear what this private reference site cannot do.

This Is Not a Court or Government Office. This private reference site cannot retrieve a docket, alter a setting, seal or remove a case, certify a copy, or provide legal advice. Contact the responsible clerk or court for those services.
