Guide

How to search Indiana court cases

MyCase is the Indiana courts' public case search, reached from the Indiana Judicial Branch home page under Search cases.

The same site lists every court, offers e-filing and streams some trial court hearings. Certified copies come from the clerk of the county where the case was filed.

Divorce files in Indiana: contents and access

Indiana dissolutions are trial court cases kept by the Clerk of the Circuit Court of the county. Rule 4 of the Rules on Access to Court Records makes all court records accessible to the public except as Rule 5 provides, dissolution is not an excluded case type, and Rule 5(C) removes only specific data such as complete Social Security and account numbers. There is no statewide financial affidavit; county local rules supply a financial declaration where they require one, and it is public when filed unless excluded by a Rule 6 order. The decree, settlement agreement, property division order and child support worksheet are public.

mycase.in.gov is the statewide search, open to anyone for public case information and documents, with some document types linked in the chronological case summary; the full file is read at the clerk's office or public terminal. Excluding a record takes a petition, a public hearing and clear and convincing evidence under Rule 6. The Indiana asset search page explains what the decree and declaration show.

Straight answers

Indiana court record questions

Open only the answer you need.

Are court records free?

State court records are usually free to view at the courthouse and often free online, with per-page fees for certified copies. PACER charges $0.10 per page (capped at $3.00 per document), waived under $30 per quarter.

Do sealed cases show up?

No. A sealed case is hidden from the public docket index by court order. Its existence may still be confirmable by number, but documents are not accessible.

What's the difference between civil and criminal court records?

Civil cases involve disputes between parties (contracts, torts, family). Criminal cases are brought by the government. Both are indexed by the same court clerks but tracked in separate sub-dockets.

Can I search every court at once?

Not in one search. PACER covers all federal courts. Most states have a statewide judiciary portal that covers their state courts, but a few require per-county lookups. This page links to Indiana's official portal.
