Bibb County Court Records
Bibb County court records are official documents that detail local court activities, such as cases they handle and their administrative functions. These records include information about court cases, like litigants' names, case details (number, status, filing date, etc.), filings, orders, and judgments. Bibb court records are also essential for legal research conducted by legal professionals and interested members of the public. They can also be used to establish legal precedents for future cases and to initiate appeals.
Are Court Records Public in Bibb County?
Alabama Code § 36-12-40 grants state residents the right to access and make copies of public records held by government offices throughout the state, including court records. As a result, most court records are considered public and available to record seekers on request.
However, the statute is not absolute. Specific records are exempt from public access due to the sensitive information they contain, and when their release would constitute an unwarranted invasion of the subject's privacy. Examples of these restricted records include, but are not limited to:
- Adoption records
- Juvenile court record
- Medical, psychological, and mental records
- Personal information of jurors and witnesses
- Protected financial information, such as Social Security Numbers

Bibb County Criminal and Civil Records
Certain Bibb County criminal records, such as arrest records, are preserved by local law enforcement agencies like the county Sheriff's Office and municipal police departments. Generally, these agencies create and maintain these records after making arrests to document the incident. Therefore, interested individuals can contact these agencies to access Bibb County arrest records.
Each local Bibb County law enforcement agency may operate differently. Nonetheless, most agencies accept in-person requests for Bibb arrest records that they keep. Record seekers must provide identifiable information about the record they seek to identify it. This includes the arrestee's name and the arrest date or an approximate date. These requests may incur a small fee to cover the agency's cost for reproducing copies of the requested record.
On the other hand, court records for criminal and civil cases handled by the Bibb County court system are kept by the clerk's office of the local court that presided over each case. Interested persons can query the Circuit Clerk's office if a case was handled by the Circuit or District Court. Meanwhile, if a municipal court presided over a case, record seekers can query the specific municipal court clerk's office to obtain the case's court records. Generally, record seekers can visit a court clerk's office during regular business hours to make an in-person request for the desired record.
Alternatively, court records for civil and criminal cases are available online through the Alabama Just One Look portal. To use the portal, individuals must create an account, and searches can be conducted by name or case number for a $9.99 fee.

Bibb County Court Records Online
Record seekers can use third-party websites like Alabamacourtrecords.us to access Bibb County court records. This website provides a user-friendly interface and requires minimal information to conduct a search, such as a subject's name and case number.
