Montgomery County Divorce Records
Montgomery County divorce records are case files created by the county's Circuit Court and Chancery Court during marriage dissolution proceedings. In Montgomery County, the Circuit and Chancery Courts have concurrent jurisdiction over family law matters, including divorce cases. Consequently, the Montgomery County Circuit Court Clerk's Office and the Office of the Clerk and Master maintain divorce records.
Tennessee considered divorce records as public documents. This means that any interested person can access documents filed during divorce proceedings, including petitions, motions, and final decrees, unless the judge seals or restricts access. However, the custodians of Montgomery County divorce records are required to redact sensitive information, such as:
- Personally identifying details protected by state and federal laws
- Information about minor children
- Details of domestic violence
- Internal court case management records that are not part of the official case file
- Adoption-related records
- Child abuse and neglect records.
Interested parties can access records of divorce cases handled by the Montgomery County Circuit Court through the Circuit Court Clerk's Office Online Court Records System. For certified copies of Montgomery County divorce records, identify the Montgomery County court that handled the specific proceedings and contact the Montgomery County Circuit Court Clerk's Office of the county's Office of Clerk and Master.
