All Montgomery County Circuit Court files, including exhibits, are open to the public except those that have been sealed by court order.
Patrons can no longer request copies of Circuit Court case documents via the public website. Now that the Circuit Court is entering Phase IV of its reopening plan, more staff are available to respond to copy requests the way they did before the Circuit Court closed for the COVID-19 emergency in March 2020. Instructions for how to order copies and exhibits are listed below.
REQUESTS PREVIOUSLY SUBMITTED ONLINE
Circuit Court staff will continue to complete any request filed online and will contact requestors via phone and/or email when their copies are ready. This includes researching files that have already been requested from the Warehouse.
Patrons who have an online request number and who have been notified their copies are ready can either pick up in person or have them mailed. Send a personal check/money order payable to “Clerk of the Circuit Court” once you are advised of the price of your copies to:
Montgomery County Circuit Court
50 Maryland Avenue, Room 2420
Rockville, MD 20850
Make sure to note your online request number on the check/money order.
Copies may be picked up in person from Central Files (Lobby level) from 8:30 am-4:00 pm, Monday-Friday.
