In the course of my work I obtain copies of case files all the time. I will tell you, cases this old have long been destroyed. You might find an index entry (date and charges) but that's it. Misdemeanors are destroyed after 10 years and felonies between 25 and 50 years. If you are to find an index entry, it will be searching you do yourself. The court will not do it for you. Sorry for the bad news.
