You will also need to include a self addressed stamped envelope along with a check made payable to Sonoma County Superior Court. Since each case is different and it is not known in advance how many pages are involved with each document, you will need to submit a blank check and note above the signature line or in the memo portion of check “Not to exceed $50.00". We will send a receipt back with the documents advising the total charge accrued.

Archived Records: Records filed within the past twenty years are easily accessible in most instances. If the case originated more than 20 years ago, the records may be archived and it may take longer to obtain the documents requested. When requesting records that have been archived it is important to supply as much information as possible such as the parties first and last name(s), the year the case was finalized, what documents you are trying to obtain, and if the documents requested need to be certified. Additional charges may apply for searching archived records if the case number is not supplied.
