Who maintains all court system records?

• A. Clerk of the Superior Court
• B. District Attorney
• C. Court Reporter
• D. Bailiff

Answer: (A)

The official keeper of all court records is the Clerk of the Superior Court. The clerk’s office is the custodian of the court’s files, handling the filing of documents, maintaining the docket, storing case files, judgments, orders, and exhibits, and providing public access to records while ensuring their accuracy and integrity. This centralized role ensures there is a complete, organized archive for each case that can be reviewed or appealed.

The other roles have different primary responsibilities: the district attorney prosecutes cases on behalf of the state, not the court’s records; a court reporter creates verbatim transcripts of proceedings but does not maintain the full court file; and a bailiff maintains security and order in the courtroom.
