Outlook

Demand for court and license clerks is expected to grow about as fast as average. Much of the demand for court and license clerks will result from an increase in the number of court cases. More court and license clerk will also be needed to handle requests for licenses and other municipal records. However, new technologies are allowing people to submit online responses and forms, limiting some of the demand for clerks.

Job openings arise as people leave the career to retire.
