About the Greenup County Circuit Court Clerk
The primary clerk for Greenup County court case records is Circuit Court Clerk Allen Kent Reed, also listed locally as Allen Reed. The court-record office is at the Greenup County Courthouse Annex, 101 Harrison St, Greenup, KY 41144. Phone numbers in the research are 606-473-9869 and 606-473-9860. The county site lists hours as Monday through Friday, 9:00 AM to 4:30 PM.
Kentucky Court of Justice information says circuit court clerks manage records of Kentucky's Circuit, Family, District, and Business courts. In Greenup County, that means the Circuit Court Clerk is the starting office for local state court case-file review, copy requests, record-location questions, and older-file routing. Driver licensing is no longer a circuit clerk service; KCOJ states that effective July 1, 2022, driver license services moved to the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet.

What the Clerk Does in Greenup County
The Circuit Court Clerk manages the local court record side of the Kentucky Court of Justice system. A court-record request may involve a Circuit Court felony, civil case over the District Court limit, divorce, adoption, real-property title dispute, contested probate matter, District Court appeal, Family Court case, District Court misdemeanor, traffic, small claims, civil, probate of wills, juvenile, domestic violence, or mental-health matter. Access still depends on public-record limits and case confidentiality.
- Maintain Greenup County Circuit, Family, and District Court case records.
- Help requesters identify whether a case file is in the clerk's office, at a records facility, or affected by retention schedules.
- Provide case and file locator numbers when an older public record must be requested from the State Records Center.
- Accept local court payments using the payment options listed by KCOJ for Greenup County: cash, check, money order, and online payment through ePay.
- Direct requesters to the correct court or statewide channel when the record is appellate, federal, criminal background report, or payment-only information.
The Greenup County Clerk home page is also part of the assigned image set, but it belongs to the separate county clerk office.
That office is important for Greenup County records, but it is not the Circuit Court Clerk office that manages state court case files.
Circuit Court Clerk vs. County Clerk

Box 686, Greenup, KY 41144, phone 606-473-7394, fax 606-473-5354, with Monday through Friday hours from 9:00 AM to 4:30 PM.

How to Request a Certified Copy
Certified court copies should be requested from the Circuit Court Clerk when the document is part of a Greenup County court case. Examples include a final order, judgment, decree, docketed filing, or other case document. The research did not locate a Greenup-specific court copy fee, so requesters should verify the current amount before ordering.
- Identify the court division if possible: Circuit, Family, or District Court.
- Gather the case number. If it is unknown, gather party names, case type, approximate filing date, and the specific document needed.
- Call or visit the Circuit Court Clerk at 101 Harrison St, Greenup, KY 41144 to ask whether the record is in the office, stored at a records facility, or restricted.
- Ask for the current copy and certification fee because Greenup-specific official amounts were not found in the research.
- If the file is stored at the State Records Center and available to the public, obtain the case and file locator numbers from the clerk before contacting the records facility.
- Use the County Clerk only when the certified copy is a marriage license copy or county-recorded document.
Records Request Form Fields
The research did not expose a Greenup-specific Circuit Court Clerk request form with fixed local fields. It did provide the KCOJ process for court record requests and the statewide docket and records-facility rules. A complete request should include enough detail for the clerk to distinguish one Greenup County case from another and to determine whether the record is public, confidential, on site, or stored offsite.
| Field | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Case Number | Helpful when known | Use this first because older records may require exact case and file locator numbers. |
| Party Names | Yes if no case number | Provide full names and any former names tied to the case. |
| Court Division | Helpful | Circuit, Family, District, appellate, or federal determines the correct access path. |
| Case Type | Helpful | Examples include divorce, felony, misdemeanor, civil, probate, small claims, traffic, or domestic violence. |
| Approximate Filing Date | Helpful | Older files may not be in the clerk's immediate office. |
| Document Type | Yes | State whether you need a docket sheet, order, judgment, decree, pleading, transcript, or certified copy. |
| Copy Type and Quantity | Yes | Specify plain or certified copies and the number of copies needed. |
| Requester Contact Information | Yes | Provide phone, email, or mailing details so the clerk can respond about fees and availability. |
Greenup County Clerk and Court Clerk Fees
The fee information in the research is split by office. Court record copy fees were not located in Greenup-specific official sources, while several County Clerk amounts were found. Use the table as a boundary map, not as a substitute for calling the court clerk before ordering court copies.
| Item | Amount | Office / Source note |
|---|---|---|
| Court record copies | Fee not located in Greenup-specific official sources | KCOJ directs requesters to call or visit the clerk. |
| 2026 civil filing fees | Changing effective July 1, 2026 | KCOJ homepage points to Supreme Court Administrative Order 2026-15. |

| Deed/property recording example | $50 for first five pages, $3 each additional page, plus $1 tax per $1,000 paid for property | Use cautiously because the research notes the page label may be misaligned in the fetch. |
County Clerk Records and eCCLIX
The County Clerk records page says private citizens may search Greenup County records for personal reasons with zero commercial gain. Searches are limited to Greenup County records, limited to five searches per day, and listed as no charge for private-citizen use. The records page links to an Open Records Policy and a Request to Inspect Public Records, but the exact PDF or form contents did not render in the research text, so form fields should not be invented.
The Greenup County Clerk contact page is one of the successful assigned images for this clerk page.
Use that County Clerk contact information for marriage and county recording questions, while court case copies stay with the Circuit Court Clerk.
The Greenup eCCLIX public sign-up page shows the public account fields for county clerk record access.
The eCCLIX account path supports county clerk records such as recorded documents, title follow-ups, estate settlements, and appraisals; it does not replace Circuit Court case-file requests.
eCCLIX Public Sign-Up Fields
The Greenup eCCLIX sign-up inventory is useful when the record sought is a county clerk record rather than a court case. Required fields captured in the research include address and identity fields, email, phone, username, password, and password confirmation. The password must be at least six characters and contain one number, while the username must be at least three characters.
| Field Label | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Address / Street | Unspecified | Instruction says to enter address and select the correct address from the dropdown. |
| City, State, Zipcode | Yes | City, state dropdown, and zipcode are marked with asterisks. |
| First Name and Last Name | Yes | Step 2 name fields. |
| Email Address | Yes | Must be a valid email address. |
| Phone Number | Yes | Format example shown as 555-555-1234. |
| Username | Yes | At least three characters. |
| Password and Confirm Password | Yes | Password must be at least six characters and contain one number; confirmation must match. |
Common Clerk Forms and Records
For court forms, the research points to Kentucky Court of Justice legal forms rather than a Greenup-only court form library. For county clerk records, the Greenup County Clerk records page includes printable records such as Affidavit, Affidavit of Conversion to Real Estate, and Certificate of Assumed Name. These county forms are not the same as Circuit, Family, or District Court pleadings.
The Greenup County Clerk services page is the final successful assigned image for this clerk page.
That services page supports marriage copy and county service research; Greenup County court records still route through Allen Reed's Circuit Court Clerk office.
Mail and Online Record Paths
Court case records can be requested by contacting the Circuit Court Clerk. Older public records may require the State Records Center or Department for Libraries and Archives after the clerk supplies case and file locator numbers. The KCOJ records process says State Records Center records cannot be searched by name or Social Security number, which makes the local clerk's locator information essential.
County clerk land and marriage records have separate channels: eCCLIX, in-person service at the county clerk, mail requests for marriage copies, and county clerk open records request links. A certified marriage copy by mail requires a written notice to Greenup County Clerk's Office, Room 208, P.O. Box 686, Greenup, KY 41144, with the required names and year or date details.
