Delaware Counties

Delaware has three counties, and each one holds its own criminal court records at the local Superior Court and Court of Common Pleas. The Prothonotary in each county manages case files and handles requests for copies. New Castle County covers the north around Wilmington, Kent County holds the state capital at Dover, and Sussex County covers the south with its seat at Georgetown. Fees, office hours, and local procedures shift a bit from one county to the next.
