PUBLIC COURTCONNECT HELP
What is Public
CourtConnect?
CourtConnect is a
portal to case information for courts using the ACS Contexte Case Management
System. The Public CourtConnect portal allows Contexte users to find
information on cases using their Contexte security if they know the name of a
person on the case or the Case ID.
What information is
available in Public CourtConnect?
Depending on your
security, you may find information on cases from Arkansas Supreme
Court and Court of Appeals, from the
Circuit Courts in every county in Arkansas and from the District Courts in Arkadelphia,
Austin, Batesville, Cabot, Caddo Valley, Carlisle, Craighead County, Crawford
County, Crittenden County, England, Faulkner County, Hot Springs, Jacksonville,
Little Rock, Lonoke, Malvern, Mena, Mt. Ida, Perryville, Pulaski County,
Searcy, Tyronza, Van Buren, Ward and Wrightsville. CourtConnect provides access to basic information
about the case including:
- The
parties
- The
attorneys
- The
judge
- The
filings on a case
- Charges
and dispositions
- Future
events
- Judgments
Public CourtConnect also
includes information not found in Public CourtConnect including warrants, party
addresses, and financial information on cases.
As with the public version, Public CourtConnect links to case images
for some court records so you can see the actual documents filed on the case. If you cannot see a case in Contexte because
of your security, you will not be able to see it in Public CourtConnect.
The Courts listed above were
first implemented in Contexte, and their case information made available
through Public CourtConnect, on these dates:

For an exact match, or to shorten
the list of possible cases, enter as much information as you can about the case
you need.
Search by Person name, Business name
or Case Type*
Choose this option to search by
name:
- Last Name
or Company Name is required.
- Enter the First Name (if known).
- Enter the Middle Name (if known).
*Note: Only criminal
defendants can be found using the person search in cases from paper-reporting
courts. No images are available.
Additional Search Criteria
If you are unsure of the exact
spelling of a name, there are two additional ways you can search:
- Select the “Check for Phonetic Search”
checkbox to search for names with similar spellings. A phonetic example
search on JOHNSON will produce matches such as JOHNSON, JONSON, JOHNNSON,
JONNSON.
- Select the “Check for Partial Last Name or Partial
First Name” checkbox if you only know part of the person’s first or
last name. A partial last name search on SMITH will produce matches such
as SMITH, SMITHERS and SMITHWICK. (Partial name searches will take longer
to retrieve results)
You cannot search with both
checkboxes selected at the same time.

About the Case ID
Because CourtConnect can eventually
contain cases from all courts in the state, the case numbers in Contexte follow
a new format. Circuit Court case or Docket numbers are constructed using four
main components:
- County prefix
- Two-character prefix indicating the type of case
- Two-digit year the case was filed (99, 00, 01, 02,
etc.)*
- Sequential number of the case (1, 2, 3, 4, etc.)
*Note: Some historical cases
(before 1950) may have four-digit year components assigned so as to not
conflict with automatic assignment of two-digit years for the Case ID in
Contexte. Example: 26CR-1914-166.
