Clerk of Court Divisions:

  1. Title Division
  2. Municipal Court
  3. Common Pleas

Anyone who has been summoned for jury duty or has received a subpoena is familiar with the functions of the Clerk of Courts. So are owners of automobiles and watercraft when they apply for ownership titles. These are 2 of the more visible functions of a county elected official whose primary job is to keep accurate records of all proceedings in the county Common Pleas Court. The Clerk of Courts performs similar duties for the Court of Appeals.

In addition to court duties, which include collecting fines and court costs, the Clerk of Courts collects sales tax on automobiles.

Note:  Passports are no longer processed with the county Clerk of Courts but are now processed at the U.S. Post Office (201 E Grant Ave, Georgetown, OH 45121).  An appointment is recommended for new passport filings.
