Case Search
Use the county case-search tool when you need live docket or estate-case status information. Search results may not include every probate record.
WASHINGTON RUNS ONE STATEWIDE CASE INDEX, NOT A PER-COUNTY DOCKET SEARCH, and the index tells you in its own words that it is not the record: 'This site is a search engine for cases filed in the municipal, district, superior, and appellate courts of the state of Washington. The search results can point you to the official or complete court record.' It also carries a standing notice that some case information may not display correctly, including dockets, judgments and document links, and that the case status shown may be inaccurate. So a case missing from this search is not evidence that no probate was opened. FOR STEVENS COUNTY SUPERIOR COURT, the Washington Courts site names the Odyssey Portal as the more up-to-date source - this county is one of the 37 superior courts it lists for that redirection. The Odyssey Portal requires JavaScript and cookies and returns HTTP 403 to automated requests while opening normally in a browser, so an automated link checker will report it broken when it is not. Neither surface is a certified record: for a certified copy of anything, go to the Stevens County Clerk.
