Frequently Asked Questions
Are Maine marriage records public?▼
Marriage records in Maine are generally public — anyone can verify that a marriage occurred and request a non-certified copy. Certified copies (needed for legal purposes like name changes or immigration) may be restricted to the spouses, immediate family, or those with a court order.
Can I find out if someone is divorced in Maine?▼
Yes. Search the Superior Court / District Court case index for the person's name in the county where they lived. Most Maine counties offer free online case-search portals. The state vital records office also issues divorce verifications for a fee.
What's the difference between a court record and a criminal record in Maine?▼
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 Maine State Police – State Bureau of Identification (SBI) that aggregates arrests and dispositions across all courts in Maine. Court records are searched by case; criminal records by person.
What's the difference between sealing and expunging a record in Maine?▼
In Maine, 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 Maine law as if it never happened — though FBI and federal records may persist regardless of state action. The relief process in Maine is known as "no general expungement (limited post-conviction)" and runs through the Superior / District Court.
