Alaska Trial Court Name Index (Old System)

Updated quarterly - data current through September 30, 2009


What's included: The Name Index includes case information for courts that have not yet migrated to the court system's new case management system, which is called CourtView. During the transition to the new system, you will need to search both CourtView and the Name Index to get complete statewide information. You only need to search CourtView to see all the records from courts that have migrated to that system. Click on this link for data for courts that have migrated to the CourtView Case Information System. Also, no data is currently available electronically for the following courts: Angoon, Aniak, Chevak, Emmonak, Hoonah, Kake, St. Mary’s, Skagway, and Yakutat. Please contact those courts directly for case information.

CAUTIONS:

  • Currency of information: This database is updated quarterly, so amended information may not appear for up to 4 months. This may be especially important in criminal cases, where charges are often added or reduced as the case progresses. Contact the court in which the matter was filed for the most current information.

  • Verify identity: Do not assume that a person listed in these databases is the person you are looking for without at least confirming that the date of birth is the same. The court system cautions employers, credit agencies, and others to verify identity before taking any adverse action against a person whose name appears in this index. Additional identifying information may be available in the case file. To request a copy of documents from the case file, contact the court in which the matter was filed.

  • Types of cases included: The Name Index provides civil and criminal case information, but does not include information about traffic cases and other minor offenses, or confidential cases. Information about cases that have been appealed to the Alaska Supreme Court or the Alaska Court of Appeals is available on the Appellate Courts Case Management System website.

  • Corrections to case information: If you believe a record contains a factual error, please contact the clerk of court where the matter was filed.
