Lebanon People Search Records

A people search in Lebanon draws on public records held by Boone County and city offices. Lebanon is the county seat of Boone County, with a population near 17,800. The courthouse is right in town, which makes it easy to search court filings in person. Court records, property documents, and other public files are managed at the county level. You can also search Indiana court records for free using the state MyCase portal. This guide covers the key offices and online tools for finding public records tied to people in Lebanon.

Court cases in Lebanon go through Boone County. The courthouse sits on the public square in downtown Lebanon. The Boone Circuit Court and Boone Superior Court both hear cases here. Civil, criminal, family, and small claims filings are all kept by the Boone County Clerk.

Use MyCase to search for free. This state tool covers every court in Indiana, including Boone County. Type a name and you get case type, filing date, status, and party names. Docket entries and many documents can be viewed at no cost.

The Indiana courts portal gives you access to Boone County case records from any device with a web browser.

Data in MyCase comes from the Odyssey system and updates daily for most counties.

For certified copies of court documents, visit the Boone County Clerk at the courthouse. The clerk issues official copies and can run manual searches for older cases. Certified copies cost a few dollars per page. Call 765-482-3510 to check current fees and hours before you go.

Boone County Clerk Office

The Boone County Clerk handles court filings, marriage licenses, and other county documents. The office is in the courthouse on the square in Lebanon. Since Lebanon is the county seat, you can walk in during business hours to search records or pick up copies.

The clerk staff can help point you to the right department if the record you want is held somewhere else. Property records are with the recorder. Tax data sits with the auditor. The courthouse has most county offices under one roof, which makes it easier to search multiple record types in one trip.

Lebanon Police Records

The Lebanon Police Department keeps incident reports, arrest records, and accident data. The department is at 401 S Meridian St. Call 765-482-8836 for the main line. You can request copies of reports during business hours. Some requests need a formal written filing under state law.

Police records tied to open cases may be held back until the case closes. Once closed, most records become public. Arrest logs show names, charges, and dates. Incident reports give detail on what happened. If a case went to court, the court side is in the Boone County system and separate from police files.

The Boone County Sheriff also handles law enforcement in the Lebanon area. If a case was handled by the sheriff instead of the city police, contact the sheriff office for those records. The two departments keep separate files.

Public Records Access in Lebanon

Indiana's Access to Public Records Act at IC 5-14-3 gives you the right to inspect and copy public records held by any government agency. This applies to Lebanon city offices and Boone County departments. You do not need to explain why you want the records.

Agencies must respond within seven days. They cannot charge for the first 30 minutes of search time. After that, fees may apply based on the lowest paid employee who could do the work. Copy charges must be set at a fair rate. A denial must be in writing and must cite the specific exemption in state law.

Lebanon does not have a central records portal. Submit requests by phone, email, or in person. Start with the city clerk if you are not sure which office has what you need. For county records, contact the Boone County Clerk or the specific county department that holds the file. If a request is wrongly denied, file a complaint with the Indiana Public Access Counselor at no cost.

State Search Tools

The Indiana State Police criminal history service runs statewide background checks for $16.32 per search. Results come by email and cover all 92 Indiana counties. This gives broader coverage than searching only Boone County on MyCase.

The IDOC offender locator shows current and past state prison inmates for free. The Indiana jail booking search covers county jails across the state. Both tools help locate someone who is or has been in custody.

For vital records, the Indiana Vital Records office handles birth and death certificates. These can confirm identity details as part of a broader search. The Boone County Health Department may also assist with local vital record requests.

Lebanon Search Tips

Use first and last name together for the best results. Add a middle initial if the name is common. MyCase lets you filter by county, so pick Boone County to narrow things down. If someone has ties to the Indianapolis metro area, they may also have records in Marion County or Hamilton County.

Lebanon is growing fast due to its spot north of Indianapolis. New residents may have court or property records in other Indiana counties. Check multiple counties if your first search does not find what you need. Court records are filed where the case was heard, not where the person lives. Property records are filed where the land sits.
