Searching Pulaski County: what to expect
Pulaski County does more online than most: 5 county-run sources below, which keeps courthouse trips to a minimum. Court cases are the easy part: Arkansas's statewide search covers Pulaski County filings, so start at the Arkansas court records page instead of hunting for a local docket. Two local sources do most of the work — pulaskiclerkar.gov for parcel and property-tax data, pulaskideeds.com for deeds and recorded documents. The county posts nothing for vital records, so that search runs through the statewide sources on our Arkansas vital records page. Anything not online lives with the county offices in Little Rock.

The 4-Step Pulaski County Records Pathway
1
Step 1 — Start at the Pulaski County clerk/courthouse
For most local records (court cases, property deeds, marriage licenses), the Pulaski County clerk's office is the first stop.
2
Step 2 — Use the Arkansas statewide systems
Criminal background, court case search, voter registration, and professional licensing are all run at the Arkansas state level — not by the county.
3
Step 3 — Federal sources for federal records
Federal court cases (PACER), federal tax liens (IRS), military records (NPRC), and immigration data (ICE) are all federal — not held by the county.
4
Step 4 — Cross-check before relying on data
Most county portals lag 24-48 hours behind the courthouse. For time-sensitive verification, call the clerk directly.
Five Things People Get Wrong About Pulaski County Records
MYTH"Pulaski County maintains all criminal records."
FACTCriminal records for Pulaski County are held by the Arkansas state repository, NOT the county. The county sheriff has only the local arrest log.
MYTH"Records sealed in Pulaski County are gone everywhere."
FACTSealing removes records from public search but they still exist at the courthouse and may appear in FBI records (Identity History Summary).
MYTH"Free 'instant background' sites have Pulaski County data."
FACTOnly the official Arkansas state repository has verified, current Pulaski County data. Free sites often have stale data.
MYTH"The Pulaski County assessor's value is what I'll sell my home for."
FACTThe Pulaski County assessor's value is for property tax purposes only — usually below market value.
MYTH"All county records older than 50 years are public."
FACTPartially false. Public-records rules vary by record type AND state. Court records and deeds are usually older-public; vital records remain restricted longer (often 75-125 years).

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I look up court cases in Pulaski County?
Pulaski County court cases are searchable through the Case Search • Arkansas Judiciary portal: https://caseinfo.arcourts.gov/opad. Arkansas also operates a state-level case lookup through the CourtConnect system. For federal matters, see PACER.
Can I find out if someone is divorced in Arkansas?
Yes. Search the court case index for the person's name in the county where they lived. Most Arkansas counties offer free online case-search portals. The state vital records office also issues divorce verifications for a fee.
Does an arrest show up on a background check before conviction in Arkansas?
Yes — in Arkansas, an arrest can appear on a name-based background check from the moment of booking, even before any court ruling. Whether it appears on an employment screening depends on the type of check (name-based vs. fingerprint-based) and how recent the arrest is.
What's the difference between a court record and a criminal record in Arkansas?
A court record shows everything filed in a specific case — pleadings, motions, judgments. A criminal record (rap sheet) is a person-centric history from the Arkansas State Police that aggregates arrests and dispositions across all courts in Arkansas. Court records are searched by case; criminal records by person.
