Guide How to remove your record from CaseMine

You searched your name, a CaseMine page came back carrying your court case, and you want it gone. CaseMine has no removal form and no portal, so the whole job is one email you write yourself. Start by collecting the exact URL of every CaseMine page about you, because the policy won't act on a name alone and nothing else in the email works without them.

What you get is a de-index, not a delete

CaseMine calls this de-indexing, and it's narrower than it sounds. The judgment stays live on the platform at the same URL, and the block covers your name search page, not the judgment page. If the opinion itself is what ranks for your name, a granted request doesn't touch it.

What you send is URLs, and nothing else

One email to support@casemine.com carrying the exact judgment URL for every page you want gone. The policy requires the link, so a name by itself isn't a request. Attach a sealing, expungement or protective order if you have one. Send no ID, no Social Security number, no date of birth and no money. If anyone asks you for those in CaseMine's name, it isn't CaseMine.

What stops it is the family-law gate

The only ground CaseMine publishes for a de-index is specific cases like matrimonial disputes and child custody, and that's the whole written gate. A fraud judgment, a DUI appeal, a discipline case or an employment suit sits outside it, and a carefully written request still gets refused on policy. Anything past de-indexing needs a court order.

Collect the exact judgment URLs first

Search your name on www.casemine.com and open every result that's actually about you. Judgment pages sit at www.casemine.com/judgement/us/ followed by a long string of letters and numbers, and the exact URL is what the policy requires. Copy each one into a list before you write anything.

Slow down here if you have a common name. The results will mix you in with other people, and sending someone else's case weakens the whole request. Open each page and check the parties against your own case before you add it to the list.

Decide now whether you want your name on the public list

CaseMine has implemented granted de-indexes by adding name-search lines to a public file anyone can open, at www.casemine.com/robots.txt. Load that file now, before you decide anything, and read what's already in it. It carries 95 of those lines, and when we checked in September 2026 it was byte-identical to the version from December 2025.

Then search your own name in quotes and look at the results you have today. Decide which you'd rather live with, the CaseMine page or a line in that file, before you send anything.

Send one email to support@casemine.com

List the exact URLs, say you're requesting de-indexing, and give your ground in a sentence or two. Put your name and the words de-indexing request in the subject line, and keep that same subject on every follow-up, because it's the only routing there is.

Screenshot the policy page before you hit send. It's at www.casemine.com/home/judgment-hosting-and-takedown-policy-india, and that screenshot plus a copy of your sent email is the whole file you'll have if you ever need to show what the rule said the day you filed.

Resend if nothing comes back

Don't sit waiting on a confirmation. There's no ticket number, no status page and no published appeal, and CaseMine publishes no decision window for a takedown. What it does publish, in its privacy policy, is a commitment to respond to requests within 30 days, at the same address you wrote to.

Give it those 30 days. If nothing comes back, resend the same email unchanged and copy hello@casemine.com, the second address CaseMine publishes for data requests. Keep the subject line identical so it routes itself again.

Verify it yourself, because approved isn't fixed

A confirmation email proves nothing. Run three checks in a browser. Search your name on Google, search it again on www.casemine.com, then load every judgment URL you sent and see whether the page is still sitting there.

Nothing in CaseMine's published policy promises a suppression lasts, so put a reminder in your calendar the day you send the email and run the same three checks every three months.

If the answer is no, here's what still works

A court order is the only bar CaseMine names, so that's the escalation: an order directing removal, emailed as a PDF to the same address. Don't buy one just for this. CaseMine is based in India, its terms put any dispute under Indian law, and a US order doesn't automatically bind it.

Skip two arguments that go nowhere: a DMCA notice and a privacy claim. CaseMine answers both on its own policy page before you send them, and there's no CCPA or CPRA section in its privacy policy to point at either.

The GDPR route is real, and only if you're in the EU or the UK. CaseMine names Euverify Ltd as its Article 27 representative at gdpr@euverify.com, and that's a genuine lever if you're covered. If you're in the US, writing to it does nothing.

What none of this changes

Nothing you send CaseMine touches the court's own record. The docket stays where it is, the opinion stays in the public file, and a de-index is not a sealing and not an expungement. If you want the underlying record sealed, that's a filing in the court that made it, not an email to a website.

CaseMine is one result, not the problem. Before you call this done, search the case name itself and write down every other site carrying the same opinion. Each one takes its own request, to its own address, and clearing CaseMine on its own moves one line on a page full of them.

When CaseMine is one of several.

Send the CaseMine email yourself. The work is the URL list and the re-checks every three months, and it stays yours to keep doing. When the same opinion is also sitting on Justia, CourtListener and vLex, our Court Record Removal service is $199, one time, and we take the filing and the follow-up off your desk.

Have us do it.

Everything above, filed for you, chased for you, and reported back. One flat fee.
