The archival fonds comprises documents resulting from the activities of the court operating in the Úštěk Judicial District in 1938-1945. In the fonds's inventory we find reference to the Jewish matters only under inv. No. 13 – Jewish debts 1940-1942. Jewish-related documents can also be founded in the unarranged part of the fonds in the collection of deeds for the land books, which also contains documents of transfers of property originally belonging to Jewish owners (private and legal persons). 

The official books were not preserved at all, while the registry finding aids only in fragments. The court files are stored by original system in the following groups: IV – court files, V – debt service office (served the districts of the Amtsgerichts in Úštěk and in Štětí), VI – inheritance court.
