How to Search Arizona Court Records (Start Here)
Arizona court records are filed with the Clerk of the Superior Court. The Superior Court / Justice Court handles trial-level cases. Arizona offers a statewide court search through AZ Courts Public Access, which covers most case types across all counties courts.
What this page covers: Arizona 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 AZ Courts Public Access for online case search. If you need documents beyond docket information, contact the Clerk of the Superior Court in the specific county where the case was filed.
Common mistake: AZ Courts Public Access covers state courts only. Federal cases filed in Arizona (bankruptcy, federal criminal, federal civil) require PACER — a separate federal system.
