Why We Built This Site
Oregon offers several public access routes, but each answers a different question. The Multnomah County Sheriff's Office keeps its reports and booking files; Oregon Circuit Court records show filings and outcomes; Oregon State Police maintains the statewide criminal-history repository; and corrections and registry records have their own systems. We organize the verified request steps, contacts, portals, and published fees so readers can start with the actual custodian.
What You Will Find Here
- Record guides: how criminal court case records are searched and read in Multnomah County
- Official check walkthroughs: the separate name-based and fingerprint record-review routes offered by Oregon State Police CJIS
- Agency contacts: verified routes to the sheriff, Multnomah Circuit Court, and Oregon systems holding county records
- Record cleanup help: Oregon's set-aside process and the Multnomah court unit that receives motions
What We Cannot Do
This is a privately run reference site with no affiliation to an Oregon court, police department, sheriff, or state agency. Those boundaries mean:
- We cannot run an official background check or pull a criminal record for anyone
- We cannot file set-aside motions, records requests, or any other paperwork on your behalf
- We cannot issue certified copies of any criminal record, court document, or rap sheet
- We cannot give legal advice or explain how a specific charge or case applies to you
- We cannot guarantee that every phone number, fee, or address listed on this site is current right now
An official copy must come from its custodian, such as the sheriff, the court, or Oregon State Police CJIS. This guide can identify that office but cannot issue the document.
Search Partners
Outside providers power search boxes on some pages and control their own results, prices, and service terms. A paid signup reached through one of those tools may generate a referral fee that supports the site. We do not set the provider's charges or determine what its search returns.
