Ocoee, Florida, in Orange County, has about 51,000 residents (2024 Census Bureau estimate). In Florida the public criminal record is the court file, kept by the Clerk of the Circuit Court and Comptroller; the statewide criminal history kept by the Florida Department of Law Enforcement is open to anyone who asks. This guide says where each record of a criminal case from Ocoee is kept and how it is seen.
This guide covers the court file, the statewide record, local arrest records, the prosecutor, sex offender registry, records requests and common questions.

Criminal Cases in the Orange County Circuit Court
A criminal case from Ocoee is filed in the Orange County Circuit Court or the County Court, which takes misdemeanors, traffic cases, small claims and civil cases up to $50,000, and the court file, kept by the Clerk of the Circuit Court and Comptroller, is the record of it that the public may see.
For Orange County, SearchSystems opened and checked the court records page for the county at ftp.orangecountyfl.net/orangebids/Bid_Addenda.asp (page title: Page 1 of 5 The Office of Tiffany Moore Russell Orange County Clerk of Courts), which answered when SearchSystems opened it on October 11, 2026.
Florida has no single public index of every trial court case; each court's records are looked up through that court.
The Florida Criminal History and Your Own Copy
Florida is one of the states that lets anyone look up another person's statewide criminal history: anyone can run a name-based criminal history search online for $24, for $24 a search, through the Florida Department of Law Enforcement. The result is the repository record, what agencies reported to the state, which is wider than one county's court index but can lag it. The search is on the Florida Department of Law Enforcement site.
Arrest Records Kept Locally in Ocoee
The Orange County Sheriff's Office and the agency that reports for Ocoee (filed by the FBI as Ocoee Police Department) keep the arrest records in and around Ocoee: the report and the booking record of each arrest stay with the agency that made it, separate from the court file and from the state repository.
The FBI's agency list also places seven state agencies, one campus police department, one other agency and one state police unit in Orange County (the arrest records guide names each one); each keeps the records of its own arrests.
Together, the two agencies in Orange County with all twelve months of 2025 on file reported 17,154 arrests to the FBI that year; how each case ended is in the court file, not in the arresting agency's.
The agencies and their counts, year by year, are in Ocoee arrest records.
The State Attorney for Orange County
Charges in Orange County are filed by the State Attorney, which reviews the arrests of every agency in the county and brings the cases in the Orange County Circuit Court or the County Court.

The Sex Offender Registry for Ocoee
Registered sex offenders living in Ocoee are listed on the Florida Sexual Offenders and Predators Registry, run by the Florida Department of Law Enforcement at offender.fdle.state.fl.us. The registry is public and can be searched online.
Registration itself is done in person with the local agency where the registrant lives: the sheriff's office, or the city police in a city with its own department.
Asking an Agency in Orange County for a Record
An arrest report, a booking record or a local criminal history letter comes from the agency that holds it, not from the court.
Under the Florida Public Records Act (Chapter 119) a county office must answer a request promptly and in good faith; the statute sets no number of days, and it may charge the copy fees set by statute, plus a special service charge for large requests. The county records request page SearchSystems verified is at orangecountyfl.net/EmergencySafety/FireRescue/PublicRecordsRequests... (page title: Public Records Requests).
