How to remove yourself from Docket Alarm
Docket Alarm is a site that republishes court records. You can ask it to hide or remove your information for free. It takes a few minutes, then Docket Alarm says it can take up to 7 days to act.
Before you start
Find the page about your case on docketalarm.com and copy its link. If a court sealed or expunged the case, have a copy of the order ready.
Steps
- Go to ocr.docketalarm.com/Remove.
- Fill in the removal form: your contact details, the page link (or court and docket number), and a reason in one or two sentences. One page per request.
Good to know
Docket Alarm suppresses pages that could lead to harassment or involve minors, usually within 5 business days, and doesn't charge for it.
This guide isn't legal advice. Your state's court website has official guides to sealing and expungement, and free legal aid can help.
