Terms of Use

These conditions govern access to Clarke County Court Docket. Browsing its pages, reading its content, or using a search tool signals agreement with the terms below. Anyone who does not accept them should stop using the site.

NO FCRA USE. This privately operated website has no affiliation with a court or government body. Neither the site nor its advertising partners provides a service for any purpose regulated by the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA), including credit, employment, insurance, or tenant-screening decisions. Its purpose is to help readers locate Clarke County, Alabama court-docket resources. It is not a private-investigation firm or consumer reporting agency.

1. What This Website Is

This private reference site operates independently of every court and government office. It stores no official docket or court file and cannot retrieve a case, alter a setting, or submit a filing.

The site identifies the Clarke County Circuit Clerk, local trial courts, separate Probate and municipal custodians, and official Alabama case-access systems. It may also connect users with outside search tools.

2. Informational Use Only

All content is general information. An explanation of Clarke County procedures cannot replace an official docket, a court order, or advice from counsel. Confirm any material fact with the clerk or court holding the original case.

Alabama's Public Records Law, including Alabama Code sections 36-12-40 through 36-12-47, and Alabama Rule of Judicial Administration 33 govern official records and electronic court data held by public custodians. They do not make this private website a records office.

3. Rules for Using This Site

You agree that you will not:

  • Break any federal, state, or local law while using this site
  • Use information you find here to stalk, harass, or threaten anyone
  • Base hiring, housing, lending, or insurance decisions on content from this site
  • Try to break into our systems or gain access you are not supposed to have
  • Run bots, scrapers, or automated tools against our pages
  • Do anything that slows the site down or blocks other people from using it

4. We Are Not a Consumer Reporting Agency

We are not a consumer reporting agency under the FCRA. We do not generate background checks, credit reports, or consumer reports of any kind. Neither we nor our advertising partners provide services built for screening job applicants, reviewing rental applications, calculating insurance rates, or judging creditworthiness. You agree not to use data from this site or any linked tool to:

  • Decide whether to hire or fire someone
  • Screen potential renters or housing applicants
  • Judge creditworthiness or set insurance premiums
  • Determine who qualifies for licenses, permits, or government programs
  • Do anything else that falls under FCRA rules

If you need a background check for any of those purposes, use an FCRA-compliant screening company.

5. No Legal Advice

Nothing here is legal advice. General information about Clarke County dockets cannot determine how a charge, order, case, or filing deadline affects someone. A licensed Alabama attorney can address those questions.

6. Accuracy Is Not Guaranteed

Everything on this site is provided "as is." We do not guarantee that:

  • The information here is accurate, complete, or current at any given time
  • The site will stay up and running without interruptions
  • Our pages are free of errors, bugs, or security holes
  • Results from our partner search tools will be thorough or accurate

Case records change as filings arrive, hearings move, and matters are amended, sealed, or disposed. Gaps are unavoidable. Site content is never an official statement from the Clarke County Circuit Clerk or another custodian, so verify each important entry and date with the court holding the case.

7. Third-Party Services and Links

Links lead to clerk offices, courts, Alabama case systems, legal-aid groups, and outside search providers. Those destinations are independently operated. We do not control their content, availability, data practices, or prices, and users should review the destination's own terms.

8. Intellectual Property

Text, graphics, logos, and code belong to Clarke County Court Docket or its content partners. They may not be copied, altered, distributed, or used to create derivative work without prior written permission.

9. Limits on Our Liability

To the maximum extent allowed by law, we disclaim liability for damages arising from site use, including reliance on content obtained here or through a linked provider.

10. Indemnification

Users agree to indemnify and hold us harmless against claims, demands, and proceedings caused by their site use or breach of these terms, including related legal expenses.

11. Governing Law

Alabama law governs these terms. Any dispute connected with site use must be filed in a court located in Alabama.

12. Changes to These Terms

These terms may be revised. A new version becomes effective when it is posted here.

Can you look up a case or docket for me?

Is a docket entry on a linked tool official?
