Maumelle Courts and Arrest Cases
A Maumelle arrest case moves through two courts. The Maumelle District Court takes misdemeanors and traffic. Felonies head to the Pulaski County Circuit Court at 401 West Markham Street, Little Rock. Both post case data to CourtConnect. Each step from first appearance to final ruling creates a record.
Case records include the charge, motions, hearings, and the final ruling. Under Arkansas Code § 25-19-105 court records are public. Some files are sealed, and juvenile cases get stronger shields. The circuit clerk can give you certified copies at a per-page fee. Mail-in requests get the same rate as in-person pick ups.
Record sealing is an option in some cases. Non-violent misdemeanors are often eligible after five years. Some non-violent felonies also qualify. Class Y felonies, most Class A or B felonies, and sex offenses against minors are not eligible. The ACIC has 30 days to update records after the Order to Seal.

Booking records are public under Arkansas law. Under Arkansas Code § 13-4-404 jail booking records have a five-year retention. Some fields may be redacted. Social Security numbers, bank info, and some victim data are not released. The rest is public.
