Retrieving older records may take longer depending on the age and type of case.

Are All Court Records Public?

No.

Some cases or documents are confidential, sealed, expunged or otherwise restricted from public access.

For example, certain confidential information and cases won’t appear in ordinary MyCase public searches.

If you know a case exists but can’t find it online, contact the Clerk rather than assuming there is no record.

Can I Search Someone Else’s Court Records?

Yes. Most non-confidential court cases are public records and can be searched through MyCase.

You generally don’t need to be a party to the case to search publicly available information.

However, access to confidential documents is restricted.

My Own Court Case

If you’re a party in an Indiana court case, you may be able to create an Indiana Courts account and connect your case for additional online document access.

Not every document is available online even with party access.

MyCase Is Not the Official Court Record

MyCase is an excellent search tool, but Indiana courts caution that information displayed online isn’t considered the official court record.

If you need an official record or certified document, request it directly from the Allen County Clerk.

Before You Search

Having some of this information will make the search easier:

  • Full name
  • Approximate age or date of birth
  • Case number, if known
  • Approximate filing date
  • Type of case

For common names, adding more identifying information can help you avoid selecting the wrong person.
