Access Logan County Residents Directory

The Logan County Residents Directory pulls public records from two county seats into one lookup tool. Logan County is split into an East District based in Paris and a West District based in Booneville. That means Logan County has two courthouses, two Circuit Clerks, and two Sheriff districts. Court files, deeds, marriage licenses, tax rolls, and jail logs all follow the district system. This page walks through how the Logan County Residents Directory works across both districts and which state tools help tie things together.

Logan County Residents Directory at the County Clerk

The Logan County Clerk's office keeps marriage licenses, voter registration, quorum court minutes, and small estate affidavits. Logan County has two courthouses, one in Paris for the East District and one in Booneville for the West District. Most Clerk records are shared across both locations, but filings often happen at the courthouse closest to the filer.

Marriage license fees in Logan County are $60 with both parties present and valid ID. A premarital course drops the fee to $100. A Logan County marriage license is valid for 60 days from the date issued. New voter registration must be on file 30 days before an election.

The Clerk also holds campaign finance reports for Logan County elected offices. These filings show donor names, dates, and amounts, and stay open under Arkansas FOIA.

Search Logan County Court Records

Logan County runs two Circuit Clerk offices, one per district. Both handle civil, criminal, probate, and domestic cases. Each Clerk also acts as County Recorder for land documents in its district. Deeds, mortgages, and liens are indexed where the land sits. Logan County is in the 15th Judicial Circuit.

Court files across both Logan County districts can be searched by party name on the Arkansas CourtConnect portal. The portal is free and shows filed dates, hearings, and dispositions. For older or sealed files, a direct trip to Paris or Booneville may be needed.

Recording fees follow state law at $15 for the first page and $5 each extra page. Certified copies cost $5. Filing a new civil case runs $165 to $185 based on type. Both courthouses are open Monday through Friday on standard state hours. Logan County also has a District Court for small claims up to $5,000 and misdemeanor traffic matters.

Logan County Property Records in the Residents Directory

The Logan County Assessor keeps the parcel roll for the whole county. Real property is assessed at 20% of market value as of January 1st each year. Personal property filings are due by May 31st, with a 10% penalty after that date. The Assessor serves both districts from the courthouse in Paris and an office in Booneville.

Assessor record cards show owner name, mailing address, parcel number, lot size, square footage, year built, and assessed value. Homestead credit, which cuts up to $500 off the tax bill for a main home, is processed here. Senior freezes and disability cuts also run through the Assessor.

The Collector takes tax payments in both districts. Tax payment history is a key piece of the Residents Directory and shows whether a Logan County parcel is current. The main county portal at the Logan County government site links to each office.

Logan County Sheriff Records and Jail Search

The Logan County Sheriff's Office handles patrol, investigations, and the county jail. The jail is in Paris and serves both districts. Arrest records, incident reports, and daily booking logs are open under Arkansas FOIA, with some limits for active investigations. The Sheriff also serves civil process, runs the sex offender registry, and sells foreclosed property at public auction.

To search for a person in the Logan County jail, the Sheriff's office can confirm bookings and charges by phone. Written FOIA requests work best for older files. The Arkansas Online Criminal Background Check System covers Arkansas felony and misdemeanor convictions and pending felony arrests within the last five years for $22 per state check.

Sex offender registration for Logan County feeds into the state registry run by the Arkansas Crime Information Center. ACIC has a hotline at (501) 682-2222 for verification. The Sheriff's office works with state police on major cases and evidence requests.

The state also holds marriage and divorce index data across all 75 counties.

Marriage records for Logan County weddings are first filed with the County Clerk and then sent to the state. Divorce decrees stay with the Circuit Clerk, with a copy sent to the state. Births open to the public 100 years after the event. Deaths and marriages open after 50 years.
