How You Can Obtain Winnebago County Court Records for a Criminal Background Check, Illinoise

The following article will show you where you can look for Winnebago County court records and other related documents that will assist you in checking whether a person has been arrested before or has been convicted of a crime.

Searching for official dockets issued by the court

The website of the clerk of court operates an online database which presents all types of court records released by the 17th Judicial Circuit Court. After logging in, you can initiate a citation search or a case search by party name. You can choose either civil or criminal cases and view court calendar. You can also order criminal background reports in two ways:
  • going to the clerk's office (400 West State St., Rockford, Illinois 61101) room 108.
  • filing an online document request here.
A fee is included. A criminal background check costs 6 dollar for a page. A criminal (or civil) document costs 2 dollars for the first page and then 0.5 dollar for every additional page. It can be quite expensive if you need more than one file or want to examine the background of more than one person.

Looking for Winnebago County arrest records
