Frequently Asked Questions

Where do I find Barnstable County property records?
Barnstable County property records are maintained by the Registry of Deeds (district-based not county) in Barnstable, which records deeds, mortgages, and liens. Search the Public Access - Barnstable County portal directly: https://www.capecod.gov/departments/registry-of-deeds/online-access/public-access/.
Can I find out if someone is divorced in Massachusetts?
Yes. Search the District Court / Superior Court case index for the person's name in the county where they lived. Most Massachusetts counties offer free online case-search portals. The state vital records office also issues divorce verifications for a fee.
What's the difference between sealing and expunging a record in Massachusetts?
In Massachusetts, a sealed record is hidden from public view but still exists and remains visible to law enforcement, licensing boards, and some employers. An expunged record is treated by Massachusetts law as if it never happened — though FBI and federal records may persist regardless of state action. The relief process in Massachusetts is known as "sealing (CORI sealing)" and runs through the District / Superior Court.
How do I seal a Massachusetts criminal record?
In Massachusetts, the sealing (CORI sealing) process runs through the District / Superior Court (the sentencing court). Eligibility is narrow — typically limited to non-conviction outcomes, certain misdemeanors, and a limited number of offenses per lifetime. The filing fee is approximately $0.
