Search Tips

• Not all fields are required.
• The required search criteria must include one of the following:
  • Case Number
  • Ticket Number
  • Last Name and First name
  • Company Name
• Performance
  • The most efficient way to search for a case is by case number or ticket number.
  • Without a case or ticket number, search by using first name and last name to find the case.
  • If the minimal search above has too many results, try to provide as much information as possible to help retrieve results in a timely manner.
  • Including Case Year, Case Type or Party Code are easy ways to narrow your results.
• Name fields
  • You must always include a first and last name when performing a name search.
  • If including a middle name, try only including the first letter of the middle name; middle name is not always present on a case.
  • Company names may be entered in a variety of ways, try different variations to help find the information needed.
• Case number
  • Case numbers include a year, a three letter case code, and a six digit sequence.
  • Example criminal/traffic case numbers:
    • 2026 CR A 001234
    • 2026 CR B 001234
    • 2026 TR C 123456
    • 2026 TR D 123456
    • 2026 TR P 123456

• Date of birth
  • Submit date of birth search as MM/DD/YYYY
    • Example: 12/10/2005
  • Do not use hypens/dashes - use a forward slash / to separate month/day/year.
• Case status
  • Most cases fall into either open or closed. Although a case status may be closed, it does not mean the case is completed or adjudicated.
