Judiciary Financial Disclosure Reports

Search for financial disclosure reports for judicial officers, including bankruptcy, magistrate, and special trial judges. 

Last updated May 15, 2023

Financial disclosure reports for judicial officers and certain judiciary employees are filed with the Administrative Office of the U.S. Courts (AO) in accordance with the requirements of the Financial Disclosure Requirements of Federal Personnel (5 U.S.C. §§ 13101-13111). The AO provides online public access to financial disclosure reports, including periodic transaction reports filed by judicial officers, including bankruptcy judges, magistrate judges, and special trial judges.

The database includes judges' periodic transaction reports and calendar year 2021 and future reports that are currently available for release. Reports will be continuously added as they are prepared for release.

Request Additional Reports

Judges' 2017 to 2020 and judicial employees' 2017 to 2022 financial disclosure reports are also available by submitting a request through the database or by submitting AO-10A by mail or email. Requests for judicial employees' reports are limited to fifteen reports per inquiry. The request must specify name, calendar year, and position of each report requested. If this information is not specified, the request cannot be completed.

Reports are required to be destroyed six years after filing.
