Fairfax County Archives (United States)

The Records Center is the repository for many but not all misdemeanor case records from the Fairfax County General District Court. Cases are typically maintained at the Clerk’s Office for five years before being sent to the Records Center. Some case records are never sent to Archives and others may be recalled by the Court for various reasons. Since Archives does not have access to the full range of case indexes, we are often unable to make a positive determination as to the location of a given case.
