San Joaquin * Los Angeles ** |
* Extended clerk delays for all possible records older than 2015. All such cases must be ordered from off-site storage to verify ID's and retrieve case info. Turnaround times are averaging more than 4 weeks, with some taking as long as 10 weeks. ** 2/23/24. LA County public access terminals no longer provide enough information to fully identify an individual when a possible record exists. Thus researchers must go to the court clerk to pull files for clarification, which will result in delays. If files do need to be pulled, this may result in additional fees.
