What are Pittsburg County Public Records?

According to the Oklahoma Open Records Act, Pittsburg County public records are documents generated, received, owned, or used by government agencies or their representatives while carrying out official business. The Act grants interested persons access to documents in the custody of government agencies without restriction. Pittsburg County public records may appear in various formats such as papers, microfilms, photographs, data files, tapes, disks, sound recordings, books, video records, maps, and more. Although, government agencies can restrict partial or total disclosure of some documents as established under the Oklahoma Open Records Act. Records restricted from general public view are known as exemptions. Examples of records that may be exempt from Pittsburg County public records search include:

  • Information that discloses personal information such as financial records, medical history, and more.
  • Documents about ongoing or pending law enforcement investigation cases.
  • Information about public body meetings that are closed to the public.
  • Trade secrets

In addition to government agencies, some public records may also be accessible from third-party websites. These non-government platforms come with intuitive tools that allow for expansive searches. Record seekers may either opt to use these tools to search for a specific record or multiple records. However, users will need to provide enough information to assist with the search such as:

  • The name of the subject involved in the record (subject must be older than 18 or not juvenile)
  • The address of the requestor
  • A case number or file number (if known)
  • The location of the document or person involved
  • The last known or current address of the registrant

Third-party sites are not sponsored by government agencies. Because of this, record availability and results may vary.
