Question 1

How do I look up property records in Cochise?

Accepted Answer

Property records in Cochise County are split between two offices. The **Cochise County Recorder** at 1415 Melody Lane, Building B, Bisbee AZ 85603 (phone 520-432-8350) handles the recorded documents — deeds, mortgages, liens, releases, plats, surveys. Free public search at https://www.cochise.az.gov/498/Recorder. Recording fee is a flat **$30 per document** under A.R.S. § 11-475 (effective July 1, 2019); plats and surveys are $24 first page + $20 per additional page. The **Cochise County Assessor** handles parcel ownership, valuations, tax data, and parcel maps — free search at https://www.cochise.az.gov/151/Assessor. For tax payment status check the **Cochise County Treasurer**. Independent searchable database also at https://cochiserecords.us/property-records. **Tip**: when buying or refinancing, get a title company involved — Cochise has a long-running history of mineral-rights severance (mining country), and many surface deeds don't include the mineral estate.

Question 2

How do I find a divorce record in Cochise?

Accepted Answer

Divorce records in Cochise County are filed at the **Cochise County Superior Court Clerk** office in Bisbee (1415 Melody Lane, Building B, Bisbee AZ 85603) — Arizona Superior Court handles all divorces, since the state abolished separate family courts. Search Cochise's divorce cases on the Arizona Judicial Branch public access portal at https://apps.supremecourt.az.gov/publicaccess/. **Fees**: certified copy of any document including divorce decree is **$35**, plus a $28 records-search fee if the file is in the closed-records archive. Filing a new dissolution-of-marriage case costs $349 (petitioner) and $269 (responding party answer); these are statutory fees set under A.R.S. Title 12. Older divorces (pre-2000) typically aren't online — they require an in-person request at the Clerk's archive. **Eligibility**: divorce decrees are public records in Arizona — anyone can request a copy. The actual divorce certificate itself is held by the Clerk, not the Arizona Department of Health (Arizona, unlike many states, does not issue a state-level divorce certificate). For tax/financial divisions sealed by the court (e.g., child support orders involving minors), only the parties or their attorneys can access.

Question 3

Where do I order a DMV driving record in Sierra Vista?

Accepted Answer

Arizona driving records (MVRs) come from the **Arizona Motor Vehicle Division**, not local DMV offices. Sierra Vista's MVD office is at **5224 E Charleston Rd, Sierra Vista, AZ 85635**, phone (800) 251-5866, hours Mon–Fri 7:30 am – 5:00 pm — but you don't need to visit in person. **Three ways to order**: (1) **AZ MVD Now** online portal at https://azmvdnow.gov — free account, instant download for your own record; uncertified 39-month MVR $3, certified 5-year MVR $5, certified 10-year MVR $5. (2) **In person** at the Sierra Vista MVD with a photo ID — same fees, same-day. (3) **Mail** Form 46-0148 (Motor Vehicle Record Request) to MVD Records Services, P.O. Box 2100 Mail Drop 539M, Phoenix AZ 85001 — allow 7–10 business days. **Limitations**: federal Driver Privacy Protection Act (DPPA) restricts third-party access — you can pull your own MVR freely, but a non-permissible-use third party cannot. Insurance companies, employers (with written consent), and law enforcement get access; private individuals cannot pull a stranger's MVR. Out-of-state MVR for a vehicle accident? Use the police accident report instead, available from Sierra Vista PD at (520) 452-7500. Sources: ADOT MVD, AZ MVD Now, ServiceArizona

Question 4

What's the source for arrest records in Arizona?

Accepted Answer

Arizona arrest information comes from the booking agency, with no statewide master list. **Five-source playbook**: (1) **County jail roster** for sheriff arrests and current bookings — MCSO https://www.mcso.org (Maricopa, 602-876-1011); Pima PCSD; Pinal https://www.pinal.gov/1636/Inmate-Search; Yavapai https://apps.yavapaiaz.gov/inmatesearch/; plus 11 other counties. Statewide aggregator (private) https://recentbookings.arizonaofficialrecords.com/. (2) **City PD blotter** for arrests inside city limits — Phoenix Police Adult Arrests Dashboard https://www.phoenix.gov/administration/departments/police/crime-stats-data/crime-stats-maps.html/published/8g516L4Wc; bulk download at https://www.phoenixopendata.com/showcase/d_arrests; Tucson, Mesa, Chandler, Glendale all maintain similar logs. (3) **Court records** once charges file (24–72 hours after arrest) — Arizona Judicial Branch https://apps.azcourts.gov/publicaccess/caselookup.aspx, all 15 counties. (4) **State prison**: AZ DOC https://corrections.az.gov/inmate-data-search. (5) **Personal authoritative criminal history**: AZ DPS Public Services Portal https://psp.azdps.gov — fingerprint-based Personal Review $22 first / $7 each additional. **For older or closed cases**, file a written A.R.S. § 39-121 records request directly to the originating agency. **For employment use**, FCRA-compliant background-check vendors (Checkr, Sterling, GoodHire) consolidate state, FBI, court, and county into a single report.

Question 5

Where do I find business records in Maricopa?

Accepted Answer

Arizona business registrations are split between two state agencies, depending on entity type. (1) **Corporations, LLCs, partnerships, nonprofits** — registered with the **Arizona Corporation Commission (ACC)**, 1300 W Washington St, Phoenix AZ 85007, phone (602) 542-3026. Free public search at https://ecorp.azcc.gov/EntitySearch — returns status, formation date, statutory agent, principal address, officers/managers, annual reports, and document images. (2) **Trade names (DBAs), trademarks, sole proprietorships** — registered with the **Arizona Secretary of State**, 1700 W Washington St, Phoenix AZ 85007. Search at https://apps.azsos.gov/apps/tntp/se.html.

(4) **Phoenix/Maricopa city-level business licenses** — City of Phoenix at https://www.phoenix.gov/finance/plt; Mesa at https://www.mesaaz.gov; each city issues its own privilege/transaction tax license. (5) **Statewide TPT (Transaction Privilege Tax) license** — Arizona Department of Revenue at https://aztaxes.gov; required for most retail/service businesses. **Tip**: when checking before doing business, run BOTH ACC and SOS — many DBAs aren't with ACC.

Question 6

How do I look up a court case in Chandler?

Accepted Answer

Chandler court cases live in two systems depending on case type. (1) **Misdemeanors, traffic, civil violations, and city-ordinance cases** are at the **Chandler Municipal Court**, 200 E Chicago St, Chandler AZ 85225, phone (480) 782-4700. Free case lookup at https://www.chandleraz.gov/residents/chandler-municipal-court/find-my-case — search by name or case number.

Document copies: $0.50/page uncertified, certified copy $30 first page + $0.50 each additional.
