Welcome!

The Office of the Clerk of the Circuit Court is a public institution rich in tradition and history of the State of Maryland. The Clerk of Court is one of the oldest public offices in our state and dates back as far as 1658 to the first Maryland settlement.

The duties of the judges at the state trial court level were so compelling that the Clerk's Office was established as an independent keeper of the records and to maintain the integrity of the records in a safe and impartial manner; and in doing so, to serve the people. The Clerk of the Circuit Court is an elected Constitutional officer of the State of Maryland.

We continue to make significant progress in bringing the Clerk's Office into the 21st Century. Now we are preparing for next millennium by implementing new technologies including imaging, online case search, and various “e-filing” initiatives.

Thank you for your interest in the Clerk's Office. If we may help you, please call or visit us soon.

Robert P. Duckworth, Clerk
