Here's where to look for the records most people ask about in Barry County:
- Court case files: contact the Barry County Circuit Clerk, 102 West Street, Cassville, MO 65625; Civil Division Suite 2, Criminal Division Suite 1; 417-847-3133; Barry.County.Judicial.Center@courts.mo.gov; Monday-Friday, 8:00 a.m.-4:00 p.m.
- Circuit Court matters: use the Barry County Circuit Court path through the 39th Judicial Circuit for civil, criminal, domestic, probate, small claims, traffic, protection order, and municipal-division case files kept by the Circuit Clerk.
- Marriage and divorce records: see marriage and divorce records. Marriage licenses are handled by Recorder of Deeds Danielle Still at 700 Main Street, Suite 6, Cassville, MO 65625; 417-847-2914; barrycorecorder@barrycountygov.com; Monday-Friday, 8:00 a.m.-4:00 p.m., with recordings accepted until 3:00 p.m. Divorce case files route to the Circuit Clerk Civil Division at 102 West Street.
- Probate, wills, and estates: see probate records. Barry County probate is handled by the Probate Division of the Circuit Court through the Circuit Clerk at 102 West Street.
- Criminal and arrest records: see arrest records and charges. Court charge files route to the Circuit Clerk; sheriff reports and jail questions route to the Barry County Sheriff's Office and Jail, 94 Barry County Drive, P.O. Box 459, Cassville, MO 65625; 417-847-6556.
- Jail roster: see inmate records. The Sheriff publishes a current roster and a recent released roster; detention staff should be called at 417-847-6556 to confirm bail, charges, and case numbers.
- Active warrants: see warrant records. The Sheriff publishes a Most Wanted list, but the official FAQ directs warrant checks to the Sheriff's Office in person and the 417-847-6556 phone line. Call before appearing because the FAQ and other sheriff pages list different public-facing locations.
- Monett municipal tickets: contact Monett Municipal Court, 1901 E Cleveland, Monett, MO 65708; 417-235-4677; fax 417-235-4607; Monday-Friday, 8:00 a.m.-5:00 p.m.; payment window Monday-Friday, 8:15 a.m.-4:30 p.m.; court sessions Tuesdays at 4:00 p.m. excluding holidays.
- Other county records: identify the custodian first. Missouri Sunshine Law requests should go to the public governmental body that created or keeps the record, such as the Circuit Clerk, Recorder of Deeds, Sheriff, or municipal court.
