Criminal Disposition or Docket Order Form IMPORTANT! Documents are only available for those county circuit courts which have transferred their case files to the Archives. For more information as to which counties have transferred files, contact us by email at msa.helpdesk@maryland.gov or by phone at 410-260-6487.

This form should only be used to request a Criminal Charge Disposition or Docket Entry within a court case file. Please specify which document(s) is/are needed. For the entire case file, please use the County Court Case Order Form.

Fees
The non-refundable and non-transferrable fee is $25.00 per copy. All government-created Criminal Disposition documents will be certified.

Please Note: An order consists of searching for one record, one name, one year, one place based on the information you provide. The Archives cannot guarantee results. If the search provides no record matching the information given, the fee is not returned, and you will be mailed a notification letter from the Archives.

Another search of additional names, years, or counties will require a new order.

Order Delivery
Response time in answering emails and fulfilling record requests may be impacted by the pandemic and our ability to get access to the records.
