Need an Official Docket or Record?
Use the following Bourbon County routes for common court-record needs:
- Docket or case number: use Kansas CaseSearch, then ask the custodian about any missing public material
- Hearing date: review the court-date routes and confirm the current setting with the court
- District Court document: request the exact public filing from Melissa Trim's office
- Certified copy: state that certification is needed when ordering from the clerk
- Municipal matter: contact the issuing city court rather than assuming District Court holds it
The district-file custodian is Melissa Trim, Clerk of the Bourbon County District Court, 210 S. National Ave., Fort Scott, KS 66701, 620-223-0780. Published courthouse hours are Monday through Friday, 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Confirm access and the current request method before traveling or mailing sensitive material.
