Missouri court records are filed with the Circuit Clerk. The Circuit Court handles trial-level cases. Missouri offers a statewide court search through Case.net, which covers most case types across all counties courts.
What this page covers: Missouri state court case records — criminal, civil, family, and probate filings. What it does not cover: Federal court cases (those are on PACER) or sealed/juvenile records.
Where to start: Use Case.net for online case search. If you need documents beyond docket information, contact the Circuit Clerk in the specific county where the case was filed.
Common mistake: Case.net covers state courts only. Federal cases filed in Missouri (bankruptcy, federal criminal, federal civil) require PACER — a separate federal system.
