Access Pulaski County Circuit Clerk Records

Pulaski County Circuit Clerk Office

Pulaski County's primary court-records clerk is the Circuit Clerk, Rachelle Beasley. County and recorder sources identify the office as a combined Circuit Clerk and Recorder of Deeds office, so the same elected official appears in both court-record and recorder contexts. The court-record side handles Circuit Court filings and case access. The recorder side handles recorded instruments and marriage license work. This combined structure matters because a person may need one counter for a court-certified copy and the recorder search for a marriage or land-record instrument.

The official Pulaski County Circuit Clerk page identifies the clerk's court duties, while the official Recorder of Deeds page describes recorder work such as marriage licenses, recorded documents, and passport applications. The Recorders' Association of Missouri also lists the office as "Rachelle Beasley, Circuit Clerk/Recorder," which confirms that Pulaski County does not split these duties between two unrelated public counters.

The Pulaski County elected officials page is a useful source for checking the clerk and recorder identity before making a records request.

That elected-office context helps distinguish the Circuit Clerk/Recorder from the County Clerk, prosecutor, sheriff, and other courthouse offices.

Pulaski County Clerk Record Duties

The Pulaski County Circuit Clerk keeps the official court record for cases filed in the Circuit Court and its divisions. The research source lists domestic, civil, criminal, traffic, child support, mechanic liens, transcript judgments, adoption, small claims, docket entries, hearings, costs, fines, and preservation of court records as clerk duties. That range explains why a court user may see the same clerk office named on a divorce file, felony case, traffic case, probate docket, or small claims matter.

• Maintains Pulaski County Circuit Court case files, docket entries, hearing records, and judgments.
• Receives filings and tracks costs, fines, and clerk fees tied to court cases.
• Supports certified-copy requests for public court documents and older files not available remotely.
• Works as recorder for marriage licenses and recorded documents through the combined clerk-recorder office.
• Provides phone, email, fax, and in-person access when online portals do not show the needed record.

The Recorders' Association of Missouri directory shows the Pulaski County Circuit Clerk/Recorder listing with the office address, phone, fax, and clerk email.

The directory listing reinforces the combined court and recorder role that shapes Pulaski County record requests.

Request Pulaski County Clerk Copies

Certified court copies are requested from the Circuit Clerk rather than from the prosecutor, sheriff, or a private search tool. A certified copy is a copy endorsed by the clerk as true and official. It may be needed for appeals, name changes, divorce proof, probate administration, judgment enforcement, military paperwork, or another legal use. If the case is public and indexed, start with Case.net for the case number and docket details. Then contact the Pulaski County Circuit Clerk to confirm copy availability, cost, payment method, and delivery options.

1. Find the case number, party names, case type, and filing year through Missouri Case.net or a prior court notice.
2. Decide whether the request needs a plain copy or a certified copy with the clerk's certification.
3. Call 573-774-4755, email rachelle.beasley@courts.mo.gov, fax 573-774-6967, or visit Suite 202 to confirm the file can be copied.
4. Give the clerk enough detail to locate the document, then follow the clerk's current fee and payment instructions.
5. Ask whether pickup, mail, email, or public-terminal review is available for that document type.

Note: Pulaski official sources did not publish a certified-copy fee schedule in the accessible research, so confirm the amount before sending payment.

Pulaski County Clerk Request Fields

No Pulaski-specific court-record request form was located in the accessible sources. A useful request still needs enough data for the Circuit Clerk to identify the exact case or document. For court case records, the most important field is the case number. For recorder records, the iCounty search uses an account login, and the requester should identify the recorded instrument, marriage record, or book and page details if known.

The Pulaski courthouse phone directory lists the main county line and an option for the Circuit Clerk.

Using the directory and enough identifying detail reduces the chance of a delayed Pulaski County clerk records request.

Pulaski County Clerk Fees

The strongest Pulaski-specific fee data in the research comes from the iCounty Recorder Search login page. Those figures apply to the recorder online search and print or download service, not necessarily to certified court copies. Court certified-copy charges, marriage license fees, and probate filing fees were not located in accessible Pulaski official sources, so the clerk should be asked before a payment is mailed or brought to the courthouse.

The Pulaski County iCounty Recorder Search is the online access point for recorder searches and posted subscription charges.

The iCounty page is useful for recorder fees, while the Circuit Clerk remains the source for court-copy charges.

Pulaski County Clerk Online Access

Pulaski County court case lookup runs through Missouri Case.net. The Pulaski County Prosecuting Attorney links to Case.net and notes that Pulaski County is in the 25th Judicial Circuit, which helps users narrow statewide searches. Case.net may show case status, parties, court, docket events, hearing settings, judgments, and public documents when remote access is available. If a document is restricted, older, not scanned, or not remotely available, the Circuit Clerk is the fallback.

Missouri Sunshine Law covers many county executive records, while Missouri judicial records follow court access rules. That distinction is important. A court case document should usually be requested through Case.net, the public terminal, or the Circuit Clerk rather than through a broad county Sunshine request.

Pulaski County Clerk Recorder Role

The Pulaski County Circuit Clerk/Recorder role means marriage licenses and recorded documents sit close to the court-record access point, but they are still different record types. The recorder page reports about 550 marriage licenses, 9,332 recorded documents, and 1,300 passport applications per year. Those counts show the recorder workload, but they do not change where divorce case files are kept. Divorce decrees and full divorce court files remain Circuit Clerk records. Marriage license records are recorder records.

For a marriage or recorded-instrument search, use iCounty or contact the recorder side of the combined office. For a divorce, civil judgment, felony case, probate order, traffic disposition, or small claims judgment, use Case.net first and then the Circuit Clerk. The office may share staff and leadership, but a clear record description helps the clerk route the request to the right file set.
