Search function does not work on Reader

Actually, it's even worse than this. The file you can't search doesn't contain text, but it wasn't just scanned either. It seems that Maricopa County Justice Courts actually did something called "outlining text" which replaces each letter by shapes instead. This doesn't happen by accident, and isn't something you did. This is a favourite trick of people submitting evidence, to stop the other parties searching easily, but it's surprising to see the courts themselves doing that. It may be worth complaining.

Do you have other problem files? Especially ones you made yourself (I had the impression you were making them, rather than using files made by someone else...)

I've moved your post from Acrobat to Acrobat Reader. 

Is the file a scanned image?

Are you able to select the text you're searching for on the page? If so, copy it and then paste into another application, like Notepad. Does it appear correctly in that application after doing so?
