Look up a Clark County court case

The first question isn't where to search — it's which court actually has your case. Clark County has more than one.

What to do first

1. Figure out which court. Most everyday civil matters — evictions, small claims, misdemeanors, traffic — sit in a Justice Court (there are several across Clark County, by township). Felonies and larger civil cases sit in the Eighth Judicial District Court.
2. If you were a party in the case, the paperwork you were served or filed will say which court and give you a case number — that's the fastest way in.
3. If you don't have a case number, the courts take name-based record requests, in person or by phone — it just isn't a guessing game you should do alone.
4. Use the Self-Help Center if you're not sure which court has your matter, or if you need help reading what's already on file.

Programs and help that apply

Clark County Family Court Self-Help Center — free help figuring out which court and how to request records, no attorney required.
Legal Aid Center of Southern Nevada — free help if the case is actually yours and you need to respond to something in it.
This desk has not yet read which Clark County courts publish a public online case-search tool versus requiring an in-person or phone request, so no search link is given here. Guessing one would send you to a page that may not exist. 211 can also point you to the right courthouse.
