Product Descriptions

 
National Criminal Database Search
(National Scan of Contributing Courts Only) – (This Product DOES NOT search every court in the United States)
This is a database composed of criminal records purchased from private data sources and other criminal record sources. Although it is often sold as a “nationwide” search, it is not. This search is only useful for identifying potential cases related to the applicant. THIS PRODUCT DOES NOT SEARCH EVERY COURT IN THE UNITED STATES. If records are found with this database, we will verify the case at the county level to confirm the details of the records, as required by the Fair Credit Reporting Act. The additional cost to do this is $10.00 per county, per name, plus any applicable court fees.

Statewide Criminal Record Search
Currently, there is direct access to state repositories in 43 states. Statewide databases cast a wider net on determining if your candidate has a criminal record, but users are encouraged to use this search as a complement to a 7 year county search. For state’s that do not allow for direct access, users should consider a County Criminal Search only.
County Criminal Record Search*
County Criminal Records Searches are available in each county throughout the United States and are conducted in superior courts, upper courts, lower courts, and/or municipal court records as publicly available. These searches are used to determine if an applicant/employee has a felony, misdemeanor and in some instances, an infraction filing within the last seven years or longer if the record includes a legally reportable conviction. Completed reports consist of only legally reportable information; typically including:
  • date of arrest
  • date of filing
  • charges
  • level of charges
  • disposition date
  • final disposition of charges
  • any applicable sentence or penalty
Federal Criminal Record Search
Federal Criminal Court Searches identify criminal activity prosecuted through the federal court system. Criminal activity tried in Federal District Courts typically involves violations of the Constitution or other federal law. Such crimes include:
  • tax evasion
  • embezzlement
  • kidnapping
  • mail fraud and other federal statute violations
  • Securities fraud
There are 94 federal judicial districts throughout the country, including at least one district in each state, the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico. Three territories of the United States — the Virgin Islands, Guam, and the Northern Mariana Islands — have district courts that hear federal cases. Federal criminal convictions do not appear in state or county felony and misdemeanor court record searches, therefore a federal district search is imperative if such records are needed. Each state is comprised of federal districts.
