Order Original Record
The information listed above is an index entry only, the full original record contains much more detail. A sheriff court ‘process’, is essentially
the bundle of original court papers. The processes vary in size but almost always contains significant details not included in the court decree.
Processes sometimes contain witness statements or even items such as love letters which have been kept as evidence. You can see an example of a
sheriff court process here in our Learning Zone.
