Cameron County Criminal Records
Separate Cameron County misdemeanor records in Texas from Pennsylvania Common Pleas files and identify the correct clerk before requesting a copy.
Choose the Cameron office by state and case type
Cameron County, Texas
The County Clerk Criminal Department maintains Class A and B misdemeanor cases. Its inquiry contact is [email protected] or 956-544-0848; the office is at 974 East Harrison Street, second floor, Brownsville. A felony or different court’s case needs its own custodian.
Cameron County, Pennsylvania
The Clerk of Courts maintains criminal cases bound over to the Court of Common Pleas of the 59th Judicial District and summary appeals. The same office’s Prothonotary function concerns civil proceedings. Its page links to AOPC docket sheets; use the criminal clerk for the underlying filing.
Specify the Texas documents before placing the request
-
✓
Identify the proceeding
The Criminal Records Request Form asks for the subject’s name, birth date, offense and case number, with additional identifier fields. Use the official request channel for sensitive identifiers; do not put them in a public message.
-
✓
Select actual documents
The form offers complaint, judgment, docket sheet, dismissal and an Other field. Choose the item that answers your question: an accusation and a final disposition answer different questions.
-
✓
Allow for the record’s age
The English instructions describe an average 24–48-hour search and 3–5 business days for records predating the computer system. Confirm older-file timing with the office because the Spanish wording differs. Only requested documents are supplied; additional items can add another 48-hour wait.
Separate the Texas search charge from copy charges
| Published form item | Listed charge |
|---|---|
| Search | $5 |
| Plain copy | $1 |
| Certified copy per document | $5 |
| No-record letter, if applicable | $11 |
These amounts are listed on the clerk’s current linked request form; they are not a quote for an entire file. Ask how the charges combine for your order. Card payments carry an additional processing charge. The form asks users to verify search results before paying.
For Pennsylvania copies, take the docket reference to the clerk
Contact 814-486-3349 or 814-486-3355, or [email protected]. The office is at 20 E. Fifth Street, Emporium, PA 15834, with listed weekday hours of 8:30 a.m.–4 p.m. Ask for the specific criminal filing and required copy format; Texas prices and turnaround estimates do not apply there.
Keep the result within its scope
Check the state, court, case number and disposition on the returned item. A no-record response from one clerk describes that search; it cannot establish that every court or state repository has no record.
