Boone County, part of the Northern Kentucky/Cincinnati metro area, is served by the elected Boone Circuit Court Clerk, currently David S. Martin, based at the Boone County Justice Center in Burlington. The office keeps records for both Circuit Court (felonies, larger civil suits, and family cases) and District Court (misdemeanors, traffic, and small claims).
The clerk's office publishes an informational website, BooneCourtClerk.org, alongside the statewide CourtNet 2.0 / KYeCourts system used for case lookups.
Boone County's separately elected County Clerk handles deeds, marriage licenses, and elections rather than court case files, so a records request should go to the Circuit Court Clerk instead.

Records roughly 15 to 35 years old are stored at the State Records Center in Frankfort, and older records are held by the Kentucky Department for Libraries and Archives.
Which clerk has your record
In Kentucky, the clerk who keeps a file depends on which court heard the case. Check the court name on the case notice, citation, or order, then use the office and coverage details above to identify the record holder. Court names and responsibilities differ by state; a county clerk may not keep court case files. For federal cases, see the PACER guide. The full court structure is on the Kentucky page.
| Court | Typical cases | Records kept by |
|---|---|---|
| Circuit Court | Felonies and capital offenses; Civil cases over $5,000; Divorce, custody, and other family-division cases | Circuit Court Clerk of the county |
| District Court | Misdemeanors, violations, and traffic offenses; Civil claims of $5,000 or less and small claims up to $2,500; Juvenile matters | Circuit Court Clerk of the county (same office keeps both Circuit and District Court records) |
