The series consists of original civil orders and judgements created between 1975 and 1987 by the Penticton County Court registry. Orders are the formal expression of the ruling of the court and judgements are the final orders issued in a case. Prior to their merger with the BC Supreme Court in 1990, county courts were the second major level of court and the first level at which civil cases could be heard. They were the first appeal level for cases from Magistrates, Police, or Provincial courts and it was the level at which more serious criminal charges were heard.

Records are arranged by volume and folio number as assigned by the court registry. Initially, folio numbers were assigned to each page of a record. Beginning June 1981, each record was assigned only one folio number. Orders and judgements are interfiled. The records were scheduled for full retention under Court Services ORCS (schedule 100152) 51400-25.
