Vicksburg, Mississippi, in Warren County, has about 20,000 residents (2024 Census Bureau estimate). Its court cases are filed in the Warren County Circuit Court and the Justice Court and County Court, and the file of each case, kept by the Circuit Clerk for criminal and civil cases and the Chancery Clerk for divorces, estates and land records, is the public record of it. This guide says which court hears what, where to look a case up and who keeps the files.
This guide covers the courts, the records page, criminal cases, kinds of files, directory links and common questions.

The Courts That Hear Cases from Vicksburg
Court cases from Vicksburg are filed in the Warren County Circuit Court, which hears felonies and the larger civil cases.
Below it, the Justice Court and County Court take misdemeanors, traffic cases and small claims in the Justice Court; the County Court, where the county has one, takes eminent domain, juvenile and mid-sized civil cases.
A city with a municipal court of its own tries the tickets written under its ordinances.
Divorces go to the Chancery Court, and the file stays with the Chancery Clerk.
The Circuit Clerk for criminal and civil cases and the Chancery Clerk for divorces, estates and land records keep the files, and a copy of anything in a file comes from that office, under the court's own rules rather than the Mississippi Public Records Act.
