About this guide

Warren County, New York, has about 65,000 residents (2024 Census Bureau estimate). Its court cases are filed in the Warren County Supreme and County Courts and the city, town and village courts, and the file of each case, kept by the County Clerk, 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, cities and common questions.
