CLERK OF COURT

The Office of the Toole County Clerk of Court is the record keeping entity for the county, with the Clerk elected to serve a four year term. It is there that all civil, criminal, adoption, guardianship, probate, juvenile, and commitment cases are filed.

The clerk and her staff also issue marriage licenses and process passport applications. She and her deputies are also in charge of calling juries and taking care of minutes, swearing in of witnesses, and handling evidence in all court trials. It is important to note that, although the clerk and her staff handle all of the legal documents attorneys and pro-se litigants file, her staff are not attorneys and cannot and will not give legal advice.

Debra Munson began serving as the Toole County Clerk of Court on January 1, 2015.
