	Creator:	Minnesota. District Court (Koochiching County).
	Title:	Civil and Criminal Case Files.
	Dates:	1907-1950, 1961.
	Language:	Materials in English.
	Abstract:	Civil and criminal case files, numbers 1-9591 (1907-1950), filed as an integrated set. Also an auxiliary set of numerical case file transcripts and exhibits that, due to legal paper size, did not physically interfile into the main set of civil and criminal case files (circa 1909 – 1941) and one unnumbered file documenting the arraignment and trial of H. L. Kuluvar, owner and operator of the Northernaire Floating Lodge on Rainy Lake, for illegal construction of docks and dikes and lake dredging (May 11, 1961). Also included are coroner's inquest files which were assigned a civil case file number, and filed with the set of civil and criminal case files.
	Quantity:	76.6 cubic feet (76 boxes; 2 partial boxes).
	Location:	See Detailed Description for shelf locations.

Note to researcher: Materials in the auxiliary set of numerical case files may or may not also have files in the main set. Researchers should check both sets of files to insure they’ve found all materials relating to a given case file.
