Can the court deny to give my son’s court records to him?

More details to this question:
My son is currently incarcerated. He wrote to the court (town court) and ask for copies of all his records. He was told that because he has a lawyer, they cannot give them to him and he needs to get them from his lawyer. Is this true?

Your son should be able to get copies of his records directly from the court. He is the Defendant, it's his case. He may have to pay for the copies and postage unless someone picks up the package for him.
