West Virginia Court Records
The West Virginia Court Records Website was designed to facilitate public access to non-confidential court records. It also helps citizens understand the West Virginia Court System by listing the different types of courts available and explaining their functions, commencing from trial courts, such as the Circuit, Family, Magistrate, and Municipal courts, to the Supreme Court of Appeals, the highest court in the state.
Under state laws, West Virginia courts grant access to various public court records, including court proceedings and decrees. Furthermore, the West Virginia Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) establishes citizens' right to access non-exempted public records maintained by state and local governmental bodies. It permits members of the public to obtain or view complete information regarding the affairs of the government — except where prevented by any other existing law. This website offers general information to assist the public with accessing West Virginia Public Records where possible.
West Virginia court records may also provide access to some criminal and court records sourced from numerous counties across West Virginia, operating as a private entity independent of any state government agency. As such, the volume of information may vary between counties, and we do not guarantee its accuracy.
