View RecordsFind Spokane court-file references, prepare a mail request with the required identifiers, and confirm current copying charges before payment.
The County Clerk’s copy guide links the county court-document viewer for basic case information, including case number and defendant-name searches.
Keep the case number, party names and each filing you want. A case-status inquiry and a request for the filed judgment call for different detail.
Say whether ordinary copies are enough or whether your recipient requires certified copies. Do this before asking the clerk to calculate the order.
| Superior Court copy | Published rate | Illustrative five-page document |
|---|---|---|
| Non-certified | $0.50 per page | $2.50 |
| Certified with seal | $5 for the first page, plus $1 for each additional page of that document | $9.00 |
The general copy guide explicitly dates its new fees to June 11, 2026. The separate criminal-records page still displays an older plain-copy amount. Call 509-477-2211 for page counts and the exact total before paying; the examples above exclude mailing costs. Certification starts again for each document, so two separate five-page certified documents would total $18 under the listed schedule.
The criminal-records instructions ask for the case number, names of the parties and the documents requested. List multiple documents separately so the clerk can identify and price each one.
Use a check or money order payable to Spokane County Clerk. Enclose a pre-addressed, postage-paid return envelope large enough for the copies.
Check the address on the copy guide when preparing the envelope. The guide also allows in-person requests during public business hours; choose that route if it suits the record you need.
