About this guide

Pullman, Washington, in Whitman County, has about 34,000 residents (2024 Census Bureau estimate). Its court cases are filed in the Whitman County Superior Court and the District Court, 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, directory links and common questions.

The Courts That Hear Cases from Pullman

In Pullman, the Whitman County Superior Court hears felonies, civil cases over $100,000, divorces, probate and juvenile matters.

Below it, the District Court takes misdemeanors, traffic infractions, small claims and civil cases up to $100,000.

A city with a municipal court of its own tries the tickets written under its ordinances.

Divorces go to the Superior Court, and the file stays with the County Clerk.

The County Clerk keeps the files, and a copy of anything in a file comes from that office, under the court's own rules rather than the Public Records Act (RCW 42.56).
