Logan Court System & Jurisdictions
Logan County is part of the 9th Judicial District of Oklahoma. The District Court is the only court of general jurisdiction in the county, and it handles all categories of cases. There are no specialized courts here — one court covers everything.
Types of cases handled by the Logan County District Court:
- Criminal cases (Criminal — CF/CM): felonies and misdemeanors, from thefts to serious crimes
- Civil cases (Civil — CJ/CS/SC): lawsuits for large sums, as well as small claims up to $10,000
- Traffic cases (Traffic — TR): fines for speeding, running red lights, DUI
- Family law (Family — FD/FM): divorces, child custody, alimony, protective orders (PO)
- Probate cases (Probate — PB): estate administration, appointment of guardians, management of deceased persons' estates
- Juvenile cases (Juvenile — JF/JM): juvenile offenses and child protection cases
All these cases are handled by the Logan County Court Clerk, located in the courthouse in Guthrie. Magistrate hearings (e.g., initial appearances of defendants, setting bail) also take place in this court. If you are unsure which category your case belongs to, contact the clerk — they can advise you based on the case number or party's last name.

The schedule of court hearings for today, tomorrow, or the current week can be easily checked through the OSCN search system. Select "Logan" from the list of counties, enter the party's last name or case number, and the system will show all scheduled hearing dates in the case card.
Step-by-step instructions:
- Go to the OSCN Docket Search page.
- In the "County" field, select Logan.

For cases related to the Oklahoma Corporation Commission, the hearing schedule is available through the Case Processing portal. However, most Logan County residents will search for information specifically on OSCN.
Another option is to call the Court Clerk's office directly. Staff can provide the date and time of the next hearing based on the case number. Public terminals in the courthouse lobby in Guthrie also provide real-time access to the hearing schedule.
How to Get a Copy of a Logan Court Document
Copies of Logan County court documents are issued by the Court Clerk's office. There are two types of copies, and the difference between them is significant:
- Uncertified copy — a simple printout of the document. Suitable for personal review.
- Certified copy — has the official seal and signature of the clerk. Required for submission to other courts, government agencies, immigration authorities, or employers.
How to Obtain a Copy
In person. Visit the Court Clerk's office in the courthouse. You will need the case number or the full name of the party and the approximate filing date. The clerk will find the document and make a copy on the spot.
By mail. Send a written request specifying the case number, document title, number of copies (uncertified or certified), and return address. Include a check or money order for the appropriate amount.
Online. Through OSCN, you can view and print some case documents for free — including hearing date records, court decisions, and orders. The full text of certain documents may not be available online, and you will need to contact the clerk.
Some records have restricted access. Juvenile cases, adoptions, and certain mental health cases are usually closed to the public. Protective orders may have restrictions regarding victims' addresses. If you are unsure whether a document is public, ask the clerk — they will explain what can be obtained.
Logan Court Records Fees & Payment
Fees for copies and searches are set by Oklahoma law (Title 28, O.S. § 152 and others). Below are approximate rates — confirm current amounts directly with the clerk, as they may change according to legislative updates.
| Service | Approximate Cost |
|---|---|
| Certified copy (first page) | $5.00 |
| Certified copy (each additional page) | $1.00 |
| Uncertified copy (per page) | $0.25 – $1.00 |
| Search fee | $5.00 |
| Document certification fee | $5.00 |
Payment is accepted in the form of checks, money orders, and typically cash for in-person requests. Confirm with the clerk whether credit or debit cards are accepted — the policy may vary.
To check a person's criminal history at the state level, a separate resource is used — the CHIRP portal of the Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation (OSBI). This search has its own fee schedule and does not replace a request to the Court Clerk. Information about convicted individuals can also be checked through the DOC Offender Lookup.
Additional legal resources for Oklahoma residents are collected on the State Department of Libraries website — it includes links to free legal assistance, forms, and procedure explanations.
