Question 1

Where do I look up probate records in Lancaster?

Accepted Answer

Probate cases for Lancaster, California are filed at the **Los Angeles County Superior Court, Antelope Valley Courthouse — Probate Department** at **42011 4th St West, Lancaster CA 93534**, phone (661) 974-7311. **Three steps**: (1) **Find the case** via LA Superior Court Online Services at https://www.lacourt.org — free name search of probate cases (decedent, conservator, guardian); returns case number and document docket. (2) **Order copies** at the Clerk's office — **certified copy fee $40 first 5 pages + $0.50 each additional page** (Cal. Gov. Code § 70626); non-certified $0.50 per page; **search-record fee $50** for archived files. Online ordering also available at https://www.lacourt.org. (3) **Visit in person** if the case is older than ~20 years and not yet digitized; the LA Probate Central operates out of the Stanley Mosk Courthouse downtown (111 N Hill St, LA), but Antelope Valley's local probate department keeps cases filed in Lancaster. **Probate filing fees** (LA County 2026 schedule, https://lascpubstorage.blob.core.windows.net/cpw/LIBSVCExecutiveSupport-397-2026FeeSchedule010126.pdf): **First-filed Petition for Letters of Administration or Letters Testamentary $435** (Cal. Gov. Code § 70650); **Probate Referee fee** ~0.1% of appraised non-cash assets (minimum $150). For estates **under $184,500 personal + $61,500 real property**, simplified small-estate procedures (Cal. Prob. Code § 13100) skip full probate. **Important**: a will alone does NOT transfer property — it must be probated to be enforceable. **Sealed**: family-conservatorship matters and certain juvenile probate guardianships are not publicly visible.

Question 2

Where can I find a police case number?

Accepted Answer

A police case number (also called DR number, incident number, or report number) is the unique identifier assigned when officers create an incident report. **For Inglewood, California**, four ways to find it. (1) **Online via Inglewood PD's MyCaseNumber portal** at https://inglewoodpd.mycasenumber.us/ — submit a citizen police report online, get an immediate case number, and print a copy of YOUR own filed report for free. (2) **In person or by phone** with the **Inglewood Police Department Records Unit**, 1 W Manchester Blvd, Inglewood CA 90301, phone (310) 412-5246. Standard report-copy fee **$12.50** per report (per the city's official Report Request Form at https://www.cityofinglewood.org/1323/Report-Request-Form). (3) **CPRA request** via the Inglewood City Clerk under Cal. Gov. Code § 7920 — submit through https://www.cityofinglewood.org/438/Requests-for-Public-Records or via MuckRock at https://www.muckrock.com/place/united-states-of-america/california/inglewood/. **Note (Nov 2025)**: A Los Angeles Superior Court judge ruled Inglewood PD 'systematically' violated state public-records laws by ignoring requests; if your CPRA request stalls, escalate to the City Attorney or media. (4) **If you reported the crime as a victim/witness**, the responding officer should have given you a **Receipt for Property Taken into Custody** or a card listing the case number. If you've lost it, the Records Unit can look it up by your name + date + general location. **Other LA-area lookups** by city: LAPD reports at https://www.lapdonline.org/get-a-copy-of-a-police-report/ ($29.00 fee); LASD at https://lasd.org/records-faq/.
