I am aware of the law, but fortunately it is not followed to the letter by most courts!  A lot of historical resources would be lost, including the Duchess of Windsor's divorce file in Fauquier County. No Commonwealth's Attorney is going to tell a court clerk what to retain and what to throw away, and it is really a discretionary matter, anyway, as I am sure you will agree, and it has much to do with archival space. I appreciate your response anyway, and I understand the urban situation is different from the rural areas.

Since there exist in the Code of Virginia mandated retention times for Felony records  I would think as has been done with many of the new revisions of schedules that there be uniformity in retention and since the Commonwealth Attorney’s office is the enforcer of State laws it would stand to reason that those records could be equally as significant.
