Asotin County Court System Structure

Asotin County Superior Court shares its judge with Columbia and Garfield Counties. This is a common arrangement in rural eastern Washington counties where case volume does not require a full-time dedicated judge. The shared judge rotates between the three county seats: Asotin, Dayton, and Pomeroy.

The county also operates a District Court for limited jurisdiction matters. District Court handles misdemeanor criminal cases, traffic infractions, small claims up to $10,000 for individuals, and other civil actions under $100,000. District Court cases appear in the statewide DW Case Search portal and are separate from Superior Court dockets. If the case you are searching involves a misdemeanor or traffic matter, check the District Court records rather than the Superior Court docket.
