Campbell County, home to Gillette, is Wyoming's third-most-populous county and seat of the Sixth Judicial District. The Campbell County Clerk of District Court keeps felony criminal, civil, family, and probate records for the district court, and the Circuit Court Clerk is a separate office in the same courthouse complex that keeps misdemeanor and small-civil records for the circuit court.
As in the rest of Wyoming, there is no public online case-search website for either court. Records can be searched in person at the courthouse's free public-access terminal, or by contacting the clerk directly by phone, mail, or email.
Tickets and ordinance violations written by Gillette police go to Gillette Municipal Court, a separate city system not indexed by the county.

Which clerk has your record
In Wyoming, 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 Wyoming page.
| Court | Typical cases | Records kept by |
|---|---|---|
| Chancery Court | Business and commercial disputes; Trust and fiduciary matters | Clerk of the Chancery Court |
| District Courts (9 judicial districts, 23 counties) | Felony criminal cases; Civil cases over $50,000; Divorce, custody, and other family cases | Clerk of District Court for the county |
| Circuit Courts (all 23 counties) | Misdemeanors; Civil cases up to $50,000, including small claims; Forcible entry and detainer (eviction) | Circuit Court Clerk for the county |

| Plain copy | District Court: $1 first page and $0.50 each additional page under W.S. 5-3-206(a)(vi) |
| Certified copy | District Court: $0.50 for each certificate and seal, plus copying, under W.S. 5-3-206(a)(v) |
The Wyoming Legislature's current Title 5 text confirms these District Court amounts in W.S. 5-3-206(a)(v)-(vi). The section addresses civil matters; confirm charges for other records, electronic delivery, research, postage, and exemplification with the clerk. Circuit and municipal courts have separate schedules, so do not apply these amounts to every Wyoming court.
