Public Records Requests
In Florida, access to Judicial Branch records is governed by Article 1, Section 24, The Florida Constitution, and Rule 2.420, Florida Rules of General Practice & Judicial Administration.
Clerks of Court are the custodians of case files, and requests for copies of records contained in case files should be directed to the clerk in the county where the court proceeding took place.
When the Seventh Judicial Circuit Court receives a written request for Administrative Records:
- Court Administration will review requests for the existence of relevant records.
- A written cost estimate will be provided to the requestor. Payment in full is required before records will be released.
- Confidential or exempt information will be redacted as required by law.
All public records requests must be made in writing and should be directed to info@circuit7.org
