Disclaimer

Mass Courts Search looks up what is already public on masscourts.org so it is easier to retrieve. The results are not guaranteed. You use them at your own risk.

Not the official record

This site is not the Massachusetts Trial Court and it is not masscourts.org. We open that public portal and search the departments and divisions it already offers. We do our best to run the search you asked for.

We do not guarantee that a result is accurate, complete, or current, or that it is about the person you meant. A case can be missing. A name can match someone else. The portal can be behind the paper file, or still show a case after the court has changed it.

The official record is the one kept by the clerk of the court that has the case. A certified copy comes from that clerk.

Your responsibility

You use the results at your own risk. This site is not legal advice, and using it does not create an attorney-client relationship. Before you rely on a result, check it with the clerk or with your own lawyer.

Massachusetts criminal-record law

Massachusetts limits criminal offender record information under General Laws chapter 6, sections 167 through 178B. The official process is iCORI, through the Department of Criminal Justice Information Services.

This site is not iCORI and it is not a criminal offender record information check. Do not use it in place of that process. Do not use results from this site to decide employment, housing, volunteer service, licensing, or any other decision Massachusetts law reserves to an official criminal-record check.

You are responsible for following Massachusetts law in how you use what you find.

The portal can interrupt a search

The Trial Court portal can ask for a human check, slow down, or be unavailable. A search can stop before every court has been checked. Payments for searches on this site are final and non-refundable.
