FAQs – Frequently Asked Questions
Why does Maryland Case Search ask users to complete CAPTCHA?
CAPTCHA is used to help protect Maryland Judiciary case information and confirm that the person using Case Search is not an automated system.
How does name search work on Case Search?
Name search works as an exact search by default. If you want broader results, you can use the last name with a % symbol after the first character or entered letters.
Why are some charges missing from a case record?
Some charges may be removed from public view because of a court-ordered expungement. In those situations, the numbering in the charge list may appear incomplete on purpose.
How current is the information shown on Case Search?
Case information may appear on Case Search shortly after it is entered by the clerk’s office. The exact timing can differ from one court to another.
Why does Case Search return to the home page?
Case Search ends the session after 2 minutes without activity. When that happens, users are taken back to the home page.
What should users do if a search returns more than 500 records?
Users should narrow the search by adding more details, such as a name, court, case type, or filing date range.
Where can users get more case information if the online record is limited?
Users can request more information from the courthouse where the record is filed. These requests must be made in person or in writing.
