What is XChange?


XChange is a fee-based subscription to all district court case information and some justice court case information.

District courts are general jurisdiction courts. Cases handled in district courts include domestic, civil and criminal cases. All felony and class A misdemeanor cases are filed in district courts.

Justice courts are limited jurisdiction courts. Cases handled in justice courts include most class B and C misdemeanors, infractions, and traffic cases. Small claims cases may be filed in either district or justice courts.

XChange provides information for those justice courts using the Courts Information System (CORIS) and making their data available to the Administrative Office of the Courts.

The information displayed is the public record case information entered into the Courts Information System (CORIS) by court staff in the courthouses where the case files are located.

XChange provides summary information about cases. This includes information such as names of parties, party addresses (if available), assigned judges, attorneys of record, documents filed, hearings held, judgments entered, and the outcome of completed cases. Documents filed in cases are not part of XChange. To request copies of documents filed in a case, contact the clerk's office of the court in which the case was filed.

XChange information is available as soon as it is entered at any district court or participating justice court.

Information is complete for all courts since they began using CORIS. Most district courts were using CORIS by the end of 1998. Each justice court began using the CORIS case management system at different times and has made independent decisions about converting old cases. Converted cases typically display less information. Dates when each court began using the CORIS case management system are available here.

Records not open to public inspection are not displayed on XChange. Private or sealed court records, including adoptions and involuntary civil commitments, are not displayed on XChange. Expunged records are not displayed on XChange. Juvenile delinquency, child welfare, and termination of parental rights cases are handled in the juvenile court and are not available on XChange.
