THE STATEWIDE COURT SEARCH DOES NOT COVER A GRANT COUNTY PROBATE, and that follows directly from ORS 111.075. The Oregon Judicial Department's record search covers the CIRCUIT courts; probate here is in the County Court, which is county government and is not in the Oregon Judicial Department's case management system at all. A search that returns nothing is therefore not evidence that no probate was opened. Ask the Grant County Clerk. Two further cautions that apply to the OJD search itself: on 2026-08-25 the department's own page said 'Online Record Search is currently unavailable', and the fuller paid alternative, OJCIN OnLine, is a subscription service.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are the Grant County probate fees on this page the full cost of the case?
Not necessarily. Filing fees are only one part of probate cost. Publication charges, certified copies, appraisal expenses, attorney fees, and other estate-administration costs may still apply.
What does e-filing status mean for Grant County probate cases?
E-filing status tells you whether the county accepts online filing and, when available in the dataset, whether attorneys are required to use it. "Not verified" means the county dataset does not record filing methods either way. In every case, check the current clerk instructions before filing.
Why might a fee or deadline be missing?
Some counties publish fees in fragmented schedules, update procedures without a clean machine-readable source, or handle certain deadlines in local instructions rather than a simple statewide field. Use the county reference page and probate court website to verify anything missing.
