Brevard County Clerk of the Court

What Brevard County Clerk of the Court does

Brevard County Clerk of the Court is a State of Florida Constitutional Officer operating as both Clerk of Circuit Courts and County Comptroller for the 18th Judicial Circuit. Founded in 1844 and headquartered in Titusville, Florida, the office employs 251–500 staff and serves the general public, legal professionals (attorneys and paralegals), and other government entities including the Sheriff's Office, State Attorney's Office, and County Commissioners. Its mandated scope covers court case management, official records (deeds, mortgages, liens, wills), jury duty administration, marriage licensing, passport application acceptance, tax deed and foreclosure sales, child support and alimony processing, and county financial administration including Tourist Development Tax collection.

The technology platform is a unified e-government portal built around an electronic filing system, online case search across civil, criminal, traffic, probate, juvenile, and family divisions, an Official Records search and eRecording service, a self-service marriage license kiosk, an online jury duty portal, Value Adjustment Board petition filing with live streaming, and an unclaimed funds registry. Specialized portals extend the platform for attorneys and for self-represented (Pro Se) litigants. Payments are supported via Visa, MasterCard, American Express, Discover, Western Union, and Amscot. The office integrates with Google Maps for office directions and with the Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles for driver's license verification. Distribution covers eight physical branch locations across Titusville, Viera, Melbourne, Merritt Island, and Palm Bay, a 24/7 online self-service portal, mail services, and authorized third-party payment points.

The revenue model is transaction-based, drawing on statutory fee schedules established under Florida law: court filing and recording fees, fines and partial-payment fees, passport, marriage license, tax deed and foreclosure processing, notary fees ($10 per notarization effective March 1, 2026), and a $5 monthly partial payment processing fee under Section 28.24(26)(b). Additional professional-services-style revenue comes from county finance functions such as Tourist Development Tax collection and disbursement. The Clerk position is an elected office, and operations are funded through a combination of county and state budget allocations and these fee-based charges; no specific revenue figure is publicly disclosed.
