Kentucky Court Records

The Kentucky Courts website is designed to help the public comprehend the justice system of the Commonwealth of Kentucky. It provides insights into the Kentucky Court of Justice, a unified, four-tiered legal structure that comprises the District, Circuit, Court of Appeals, and the Supreme Court (the highest court of appeals). The site also outlines the various legal issues the trial court system handles, ranging from minor citations to serious crimes, as well as appeals handled through the appellate system. 

Pursuant to the Kentucky Open Records Act (KRS 61.870 to 61.884), members of the public can view and copy court records, except those deemed inaccessible by law, court order, or court rule.

This landing page offers vital information for interacting with the Kentucky Court of Justice, offering details on court jurisdictions and case records. It is intended solely for informational purposes and does not offer legal advice or official court records, which must be obtained from the relevant custodians.
