Frequently Asked Questions
How do I look up court cases in Montgomery County?
How long does an arrest stay on my record in Mississippi if I wasn't convicted?
In Mississippi, an arrest stays on your record indefinitely unless you petition the court to seal or expunge it, even if charges were dropped or you were found not guilty. Mississippi's rules for clearing non-conviction records are stricter than for convictions — start with the Mississippi Department of Public Safety.
Can I find out if someone is divorced in Mississippi?
Yes. Search the court case index for the person's name in the county where they lived. Most Mississippi counties offer free online case-search portals. The state vital records office also issues divorce verifications for a fee.
Are Montgomery County records free to search?
Yes — every link on this page goes to an official government source. Basic searches are free. Certified copies and formal background checks carry the standard government fee.
