Oklahoma Court Records

OSCN, the Oklahoma State Courts Network set up by the Oklahoma Supreme Court, searches dockets of every county district court and the appellate courts.

OSCN also holds the Electronic Law Library for Oklahoma and court forms; certified copies come from the court clerk of the county.

Oklahoma divorces are district court cases under 43 O.S. 101, kept by the county Court Clerk. Under 51 O.S. 24A.30 court records are public records unless a statute makes them confidential or a court seals them by order, so an unsealed divorce file, with the petition, temporary orders, any financial affidavit filed, the decree dividing property and debt, incorporated settlement agreements and qualified domestic relations orders, is open at the clerk's office. The statutes prescribe no sworn financial affidavit, but the Administrative Office of the Courts publishes a statewide Financial Affidavit (Pre-Decree), AOC Form 75, that a parent files.

The OSCN docket search at oscn.net indexes district court cases statewide, document images vary by county, and the Oklahoma County Court Clerk emails free on request the docketed documents whose entry reads Document available at the Court Clerk's office and charges $1.00 for the first copied page and 50 cents for each additional page at the counter. Sealing requires a public court order finding that a compelling privacy interest outweighs the public's interest in the record. The Oklahoma asset search page explains what the decree shows.
