Need an Official Docket or Record?
Use the filing court, not a generic county office, for a court file. The following channels match the documented Torrance County court structure:
- Public case summary or register: use New Mexico Case Lookup for public state court information.
- District Court file, record, or date: contact the Torrance County District Court Clerk at the Seventh Judicial District.
- Magistrate case: contact Torrance Magistrate Court for limited civil, misdemeanor, DWI, traffic, or felony preliminary matters.
- Municipal citation or ordinance: use the named city court clerk, the citation, and the city schedule for Moriarty, Estancia, or Mountainair matters.
- Court-held document request: use the New Mexico Judiciary IPRA form and route a Torrance court request to the Seventh Judicial District.

The Torrance County Clerk at 205 S. Ninth Street handles county functions and county-held records. It is not the normal custodian of District or Magistrate Court case files. For an informal-probate matter, verify first whether the record belongs in Torrance County Probate Court or has become a contested District Court matter.
