Who is eligible to run a Wisconsin court records search?

A person authorized by a party

A third party authorized by a party is eligible to run a Wisconsin court search and help the party look up all the Wisconsin court information on the case.

Court-appointed people

People appointed by the Wisconsin court are eligible to execute the Wisconsin court records search.

It is worth noting that all parties mentioned above will have no access to electronic Wisconsin court records of criminal, juvenile justice, child welfare cases, or confidential electronic records unless stated otherwise by the court.

Where to run the Wisconsin court records search?

Where and how to run a Wisconsin court records search strictly depends on the type of Wisconsin court records you have.

For instance, paper-based Wisconsin court records can only be accessed at the courthouse, whereas electronic Wisconsin court records can be found both at the courthouse and remotely.
