Need an official copy of a court judgment for an appeal, record‑keeping, or legal dispute? The United States Courts provide the AO‑30 Certified Copy Request Form, a fillable PDF that lets you request a certified copy of any judgment issued by a federal court.
A certified copy is an exact, government‑certified reproduction of the original judgment. It bears the court’s seal and signature, making it admissible in other proceedings.
Instead of downloading the PDF and opening a separate editor, simply click the "Fill out this form" button on this page. The Formize PDF Filler app will load instantly, allowing you to complete every field directly in your browser.
After completing the form, download the completed PDF and mail it to the clerk’s office listed on the form, or upload it through the court’s electronic filing portal if available.
The standard fee is $10 per certified copy, plus any applicable mailing costs. Processing typically takes 3‑5 business days once the court receives a complete request.
