Civil cases document the legal process and the administration of justice in conjunction with civil proceedings for the determination of a controversy between parties wherein rights are enforced or protected, or wrongs are prevented or redressed. Records and documents pertaining to a particular civil action are filed together by the court clerk and collectively these documents constitute the case file. As these records or actions are filed, the clerk enters them in the registers which comprise this series. The notation of an order or judgment shall show the date the notation is made.
Entries are numerical by case number, thereunder chronological.
Researchers should consult this series to ensure finding all the actions which occurred in a case. Each register contains an alphabetical index at the beginning of the volume. Registers of Actions were first scheduled in 1983 as permanent records. This series was archivally processed by David Clark in April 2000.
