COUNTY LEVEL COURT RECORDS

When conducting a pre-screen background investigation, a criminal history is of utmost importance. These searches are typically placed in two main categories: arrest records and court records. The use of each category has its strengths and weaknesses, so it is important for you to evaluate what you are trying to achieve to determine which is best for your application.
Court records are typically housed within the courthouse at the county level. To simplify the system, each county jurisdiction is typically broken into three levels. The first and highest level is the district court, sometimes referred to as superior court. At this level you will generally find most felony cases.
The second level is the county court. At this level you will find most serious misdemeanor cases.
The lowest level is the municipal court, sometimes referred to as city court. At this level you will typically find most minor misdemeanors and petty offenses. Usually cases where the individual was simply issued a summons to appear in court.
When conducting a Court Record Search, TruDiligence will always search the first and second level courts, where available. Municipal courts can be searched, but are considered a special request and will involve an additional charge.
Although TruDiligence always recommends a county-by-county courthouse search when conducting court record searches, in some states; we have the ability to conduct simultaneous multi-county searches. These statewide court record searches typically examine independent databanks that compile county records into a statewide index. These broader searches help you keep the search costs down; however, sometimes the information contained in them is limited. It is important to realize that if you choose to utilize the statewide court record system and the case file is incomplete, additional research costs may be required to complete the information.
County court record searches are $12.00 per name, per county jurisdiction searched. Prices may vary in some jurisdictions. Less than 1% of the counties charge court imposed fees on all records ordered. These fees are billed over and above the record retrieval costs. Contact us for a detailed listing of counties with extra costs.

This extremely useful tool is imperative in uncovering any additional names, aliases or addresses that the applicant may have utilized, but chose not to reveal during the application process. Furthermore, when combined with a criminal history, the social security trace is invaluable in making sure all known names and jurisdictions are encompassed while conducting the search.
Secondly, the trace will validate the year and state in which the Social Security Administration issued the number. This information can be useful in uncovering potentially fraudulent social security numbers.

STATE LEVEL ARREST RECORDS
|

When conducting a pre-screen background investigation, a criminal history is of utmost importance. These searches are typically placed in two main categories: arrest records and court records. The use of each category has its strengths and weaknesses, so it is important for you to evaluate what you are trying to achieve to determine which is best for your application.
Arrest records are usually housed at the state level in a databank maintained by the governing judicial body within each state. Many of these systems are fingerprint driven, meaning that when an individual is arrested and fingerprinted, those fingerprints are submitted to the state databank for tracking purposes. The records that are subsequently pulled outline an individual’s arrest record based on those fingerprint submissions.
Additionally, it is important to realize that if an illegible fingerprint card is submitted, the state will return it to be redone. Unfortunately, by then the subject may have already been released from custody and is not available to be re-fingerprinted. Subsequently, there will not be a record of this arrest in the system.
The primary disadvantage to most arrest record systems is they do not contain disposition information on the charges. This means that you will not know if the person was convicted of the crime for which he were arrested. However, using arrest records can also be an advantage. The arrest record in itself may show a pattern that could pose a potential concern depending on the position for which your applicant is applying. This pattern could be critically important, regardless of whether a conviction was entered, depending on the position your trying to fill.
Finally, statewide records are not available in all states and some states have lengthy turnaround times which may cause their use to be ineffective for your purposes. Therefore it is imperative that you determine if arrest records will best suit your needs. All criminal searches are per name, per jurisdiction searched.
Important Note: Statewide records should only be used as a cursory review of applicant's record. TruDiligence does not recommend the use of Statewide records as a means of promoting due diligence in hiring practices or maintaining compliance with The Fair Credit Reporting Act. County level courthouse records are recommended for this purpose.
Statewide records are not available in all states as some states restrict access to their statewide databases to law enforcement personnel only. The states currently available are listed with their respective prices and are priced on a per name basis. The turnaround times quoted are averages and may vary depending on state backlog, therefore they cannot be guaranteed.
