How to Search the Coffeeville Court Docket
Coffeeville runs no official public search form for its municipal docket. Start with the ticket or case paper itself. Read the court caption. That line tells you which office to call. Coffeeville Municipal Court handles city traffic tickets, ordinance matters, and municipal misdemeanors. Those cases go there first. Justice Court takes sheriff and Highway Patrol tickets along with the other categories it serves. For a Circuit case, register for a public PAMEC account and search online. A Coffeeville municipal ticket will not appear there on its own. The county courts page maps the districts and clerks.
- Read the Coffeeville court name, citation number, case number, and appearance date on the paper you received.
- Call Coffeeville Municipal Court at 662-675-2642 for a city-court citation or a municipal record question.
- Call Justice Court Clerk Jacqueline P. Spensor at 662-675-8115 for a sheriff or Highway Patrol ticket.
- For a Circuit case, register for PAMEC and use the authenticated account fields rather than guessing a case-number format.
- Ask the responsible Coffeeville clerk to confirm the present setting before appearing.
The municipal court publishes no list of search fields. Keep your paper handy. Spell the name exactly, and note the court name, the citation date, the appearance date, and any number printed on the Coffeeville document. The clerk can tell you which detail unlocks a specific record lookup.
Coffeeville Municipal Court Contact Route
Rusty Harlow Jr. serves as Coffeeville municipal judge, per the official state judicial directory. The published municipal contact is P.O. Box 157, Coffeeville, MS 38922-0157. The phone line is 662-675-2642, and the fax is 662-675-8416. Treat the listing as a routing contact. It is not a public web docket or a description of how the office runs day to day. Call and ask who keeps the Coffeeville docket. Ask how to confirm a court date and where to send a written record request.
Coffeeville Municipal Court
P.O. Box 157
Coffeeville, MS 38922-0157
662-675-2642
Municipal judge listing and city-court routing contact. No public online citation lookup was located.
That mailing address is only a mailing address. It does not establish a public counter or a court-day schedule. Confirm both by phone. Ask the clerk whether a citation number, a party name, an appearance date, or some other detail is needed. That one question speeds up any Coffeeville docket entry request.
The Coffeeville Municipal Court
Coffeeville Municipal Court hears city traffic cases, municipal ordinance violations, and misdemeanors within its city jurisdiction. That scope is narrower than the county's. Justice Court covers Highway Patrol and sheriff tickets, DUI, county ordinances, public-service matters, gaming, fishing, and Marine Reserve cases. It also handles the county's listed limited civil and preliminary felony work. The court caption controls, even when the incident happened inside Coffeeville. For a municipal case, the official route is contacting the municipal judge's listed office. No city portal exists. The state directory is the strongest public source for that routing. A missing online search page does not mean a file disappeared. It means you must ask the municipal office directly. Ask it for its current docket and records procedure.
Coffeeville First District Court Records
Coffeeville is one of Yalobusha County's two county seats and hosts the First Judicial District. That makes it both a municipal venue and a separate county-court records location. Official county information puts the First District Circuit and Chancery offices at 14400 Main Street. The Circuit Clerk sits in Suite 1. It answers 662-675-8187. The First District Chancery Clerk number is 662-675-2716. These offices hold records distinct from anything filed with Coffeeville Municipal Court.
| Coffeeville case type | Custodian or route | First step |
|---|---|---|
| Municipal ticket or ordinance matter | Coffeeville Municipal Court | Call 662-675-2642. |
| County traffic or sheriff ticket | Justice Court Clerk | Call 662-675-8115. |
| Circuit felony, civil matter, or appeal | Circuit Clerk, First District | Call 662-675-8187 or use PAMEC if it is a participating case. |
| Family, probate, guardianship, or land matter | Chancery Clerk, First District | Call 662-675-2716. |
Sharing a town does not merge the files. Municipal, Circuit, Chancery, and Justice clerks each keep Coffeeville records within their own jurisdiction.
Coffeeville Court Dates and Settings
Protect the appearance date printed on your Coffeeville municipal citation first. The city publishes no municipal calendar, court-day page, or live docket online. Call 662-675-2642 to confirm a municipal setting. A county trial-court case may show a notice or setting in PAMEC where available, but remember that a court term PDF is not an individual Coffeeville hearing schedule. The signed notice you hold, the latest docket entry, and the clerk's own confirmation all carry more weight than anything else.
| Date | Use the citation, current order, notice, or latest docket entry. |
|---|---|
| Time | Confirm with the Coffeeville municipal contact because no public city calendar was found. |
| Court | Read the case caption to distinguish Municipal, Justice, Circuit, and Chancery matters. |
| Judge | The judicial officer stated by the court or official docket material. |
| Setting type | The appearance, plea, hearing, trial, or other event shown by the current case record. |
A reset can leave the earlier date sitting in the file. Ask which future date actually controls, and never read an old notice as a dismissal or a final result.
Coffeeville Courthouse Record Context
Coffeeville's First District courthouse explains why county records split between Coffeeville and Water Valley. The historic courthouse stands at 14400 Main Street. The Mississippi Department of Archives and History landmark index records its designation on August 21, 1984. It also records the recording on September 14, 1987. Yalobusha County dates to 1833 and keeps two county seats. That history matters in practice. First and Second District offices are not interchangeable filing locations. A paper filed at the wrong one will not reach your case. The official Mississippi Department of Health water-systems search is the official page paired with this Coffeeville court context.
The setting ties together but never merges two docket paths. City court contact and First District county-court custody sit side by side in Coffeeville. The Census TIGER 2020 incorporated-place table documents Coffeeville's active-place status.
Coffeeville counted 797 residents in the Census TIGER 2020 table. That scale marker changes nothing; the municipal and county record systems stay separate.
Coffeeville Traffic Tickets
Every Coffeeville ticket names the court and agency that handle it. Start there. City citations follow the appearance instructions printed on the paper. Coffeeville Municipal Court answers questions at 662-675-2642. Highway Patrol and sheriff citations belong to Justice Court. The clerk there can be reached at 662-675-8115. The county offers no universal online payment address. There is no city fine list and no official Coffeeville ticket-search form. Before paying anything, ask the clerk what methods the court accepts. Ask whether payment counts as a guilty plea. Also ask if you still must appear.
Want to fight the ticket? Call the court named on the citation before the appearance date. Ask how to request a hearing or enter a plea. A PAMEC no-match is never a decision on a municipal or Justice ticket. For the wider county court-file breakdown, see Yalobusha County traffic court records.
Coffeeville City and Justice Court Tickets
A Coffeeville address tells you almost nothing about which court has the case. City traffic tickets, city ordinance violations, and municipal misdemeanors stay with Coffeeville Municipal Court. Justice Court takes Highway Patrol and sheriff tickets. It also handles DUI, county ordinances, and the other county-listed ticket categories. The routing trips people up. Both kinds of citations can come from the same stretch of town, yet their dockets and clerks are separate.
So read the issuing agency and the caption before anything else. City case? Use the municipal contact. County ticket? Use Justice Court. If the first call turns up nothing, the record may sit in the other court. Let the citation and the clerk settle that question rather than a guess based on the town name.
Where Coffeeville Cases End Up
Coffeeville Municipal Court is not the home of the county's general civil, felony, family, probate, or appellate dockets. Felonies, major civil cases, jury trials, and lower-court appeals go to Circuit Court. Chancery Court covers family, estate, guardianship, adoption, equity, and land matters. Justice Court keeps the ticket and preliminary categories named in county materials. The case type and caption point to the right court, no matter where the underlying event began in Coffeeville.
Docket flow: Coffeeville Municipal Court › Yalobusha County Courts › Circuit Court
A municipal docket does not copy itself into Circuit Court. A separate Circuit docket exists only when a case is filed or appealed there. For the county-level route to those records, see the Yalobusha County court docket overview.
Coffeeville Municipal Appeal Dockets
An appealed Coffeeville municipal case does not stay one municipal file. The original city record remains with the municipal custodian. A Coffeeville Circuit appeal is its own docket. It carries its own case number and record keeper. In MEC status vocabulary, watch for Municipal Court Appeal and Justice Court Appeal. Those labels flag a lower-court case that has reached Circuit Court.
Start a Coffeeville Circuit appeal search with the Circuit Clerk at 662-675-8187. Do not send a municipal record request to the county Prosecuting Attorney. That office works on felony matters before Justice Court. It also handles criminal Justice Court appeals to Circuit Court, not Coffeeville municipal records.
Public Access to Coffeeville Court Records
Ask Coffeeville Municipal Court directly which office holds the docket sheet, order, receipt, disposition, or certified copy you need. The court publishes no copy fee, online form, or turnaround time. For Circuit or Chancery files that participate, PAMEC gives registered users free read-only access to docket sheets, notices, and non-restricted electronic documents. It is not a certified-copy service, and it does not unseal protected records.
Key Rules:
Mississippi Public Records Act favors inspection and copying policies, while courts can apply separate judicial access rules.
Mississippi Code §43-21-255 is available through the official code gateway for Youth Court confidentiality rules.
Mississippi Code §93-17-25 is available through the official code gateway for confidential adoption records.
Some Coffeeville cases are off limits to the public. Youth Court, adoption, sealed, expunged, and protected-information files can all be restricted. Check the current access rule with the custodian instead of assuming a public case header opens every document.
Coffeeville Court Record Portal Gap
Coffeeville has no official municipal docket search, citation lookup, online payment portal, court-day page, or copy-fee table. The municipal judge directory lists contacts, not court records. The dependable first move for a city matter is a phone request to Coffeeville using the citation details, then a written request only if the court accepts one.
For a plain or certified copy, ask what record type exists, what it costs, how long it takes, and where to send payment. An appeal goes to the Circuit Clerk. A Justice Court ticket goes to Justice Court. Note: Confirm Coffeeville municipal record fees and request instructions before mailing any payment, because the official sources publish none of them.
