Tillman County Court Clerk Office

The Tillman County Court Clerk is Kevin Stevens. The mailing address is P.O. Box 116, Frederick, OK 73542. Office hours are Monday through Friday, 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM. The court clerk maintains files on all criminal, civil, family, and probate cases. Tillman County court records go back to 1907. The courthouse is a Neo-Classical building from 1921 that still serves as the center of county government.

Copies from the clerk cost $1.00 for the first page and $0.50 for each page after. Certified copies cost more but cannot exceed one dollar per page under Title 51 O.S. Section 24A.5. Standard copies cap at 25 cents per page. Tillman County is a small county with under 7,000 people, so the court clerk's office handles a lower volume of cases compared to larger Oklahoma counties. That can mean shorter wait times when you request records in person.

Under the Oklahoma Open Records Act, you do not have to give a reason when you ask for records. The office cannot ask why you want them unless another law requires it.

Sealing Tillman County Criminal Records

Violent felony convictions cannot be sealed under Title 57 O.S. Section 571.
