Oklahoma City Felony Records Overview
Oklahoma City Felony Case Jurisdiction
Felonies in Oklahoma City are not handled by the Oklahoma City Municipal Court. That court only deals with traffic tickets, city code violations, and misdemeanors. All felony charges for people arrested in Oklahoma City go to the Oklahoma County District Court. This is true across the whole state. Municipal courts in Oklahoma lack the power to hear felony cases under Oklahoma Statutes Title 11, Section 27-104. Only the District Court has that kind of jurisdiction.
The Oklahoma County Courthouse sits at 320 Robert S. Kerr Avenue in downtown Oklahoma City. The Court Clerk's office is on the main floor and handles all filings, case lookups, and copy requests. Phone them at (405) 713-1705 for general questions. They are open Monday through Friday, and you can walk in during business hours to ask about a case. Felony case numbers in Oklahoma County use the format CF-YYYY-XXXX, where CF stands for criminal felony. If you have a case number, finding the record is quick.

The best free tool for looking up Oklahoma City felony records is the Oklahoma State Courts Network. OSCN is run by the state and gives public access to court dockets at no cost. You can search by the person's name, case number, or filing date. Results show the charges, plea, hearing dates, and case status. OSCN covers all 77 Oklahoma counties, so it works for any felony case in the state.
The Oklahoma City police records portal at okc.gov is helpful for getting police reports tied to a felony arrest. You can submit an open records request online, by mail, or in person at 700 Colcord Drive. Police reports and court records are different things, though. The police report shows what happened at the scene. The court record shows what happened in the legal case after charges were filed.

The portal walks you through each step. You will need the date of the incident and any names or case numbers you have.
For paid document access, On Demand Court Records (ODCR) offers a subscription service at about $5 per month. ODCR lets you pull actual court documents like affidavits, motions, and orders. OSCN shows docket entries for free, but ODCR gives you the documents themselves. Attorneys and legal professionals use ODCR often, but anyone can sign up.

Oklahoma City Police Felony Reports
When someone is arrested for a felony in Oklahoma City, the police create an incident report. This report goes to the district attorney's office for review. The DA decides whether to file formal felony charges. If charges are filed, the case moves to Oklahoma County District Court. The police report stays with the OKCPD Records Unit at 700 Colcord Drive, Oklahoma City, OK 73102.
You can request a copy of the police report through several methods. The online portal at okc.gov is the fastest way. You can also email your request to ocpd.records@okc.gov. For in-person requests, the Records Unit is open Monday through Friday from 7:30 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. That is a wider window than most government offices, which helps if you work a regular daytime schedule. Oklahoma's Open Records Act under Title 51, Sections 24A.1 through 24A.30 gives the public the right to access most government records, including police reports.
Standard report requests take about 7 business days. Reports that need legal review can take up to 30 business days. Reports involving development center records take around 14 business days. Call (405) 297-1112 to check on a pending request.
Note: Some parts of police reports may be redacted if they involve ongoing investigations or protected victim information.
Statewide Felony Record Resources
Beyond the local court, there are state-level tools for checking felony records in Oklahoma City. The Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation (OSBI) maintains the state criminal history repository. You can request a name-based background check through OSBI for a fee of $15. This search covers the entire state, not just Oklahoma County. It pulls data from all 77 counties. OSBI processes requests at their office or by mail.
The Oklahoma Department of Corrections runs an online offender search. If someone was convicted of a felony in Oklahoma City and received a prison sentence, their record shows up in the DOC database. You can search by name or DOC number. The search results include the person's charges, sentence length, facility, and release information. This is free to use and does not need an account.
- OSCN at oscn.net for free court docket searches

- OSBI for statewide criminal history checks ($15 fee)
- DOC offender search at doc.ok.gov for convicted felons
- Oklahoma County Court Clerk at (405) 713-1705 for certified copies
Each tool serves a different purpose. OSCN gives you case-level detail. DOC tells you about incarceration status. OSBI gives you a full criminal history. For Oklahoma City felony records specifically, start with OSCN and go from there based on what you need.
