Elyria Municipal Court Divorce Records
The Lorain County Clerk of Courts, Domestic Relations, is the official custodian of marriage termination records for areas within the Elyria Municipal Court's jurisdiction.
Citizens can review basic case dockets through the local online court records portal. Individuals can also visit the Lorain Justice Center to duplicate case documents. Copy rates are 10 cents per page for regular copies and $1 for certified copies. Interested persons may also pay $50 (regular) or $100 (certified) to obtain copies of the entire case file.
A standard file contains the initial petition and various marital disclosures. It also contains the final judgment or decree. Following Ohio Sup. R. 11.09 to 11.16, general dockets and decrees are open, while confidential disclosures are not. Consequently, only the direct parties to the case may receive the complete, unredacted file. Third parties must make do with public filings and the decree.
