Records may contain trial court information for state, civil, criminal and traffic courts, and include active and disposed cases.
National Federal Search
This is a repository search for federal criminal cases files in U.S. District Courts nationwide. U.S. District Courts are trial courts for matters involving federal law. A federal search is also the only way to find high level drug charges that are prosecuted by the FBI – such as meth rings, drug manufacturing & selling across state lines, chemical theft, hospital/pharmacy drug theft, etc., as well as other major crimes such as money laundering, espionage, fraud, counterfeiting, embezzlement, gang violence, etc.
County Criminal Search
This is a jurisdictional search of the court records in any one of the more than 3,347 counties in the United States. These records provide the most up to date information available and include pending charges, dismissed charges and any deferred charges (such as drug charges that may be deferred due to the offender’s willingness to complete a deferral program such as probation or rehabilitation). A Nationwide Criminal Report will only capture convictions, so a County Search is essential in obtaining information about pending charges. Cases held at the County level include felonies and misdemeanors as well as criminal traffic offenses.
Social Security Trace
The SSN Trace provides the state and year of Social Security Number issuance, even when the number does not match the applicant information provided, in addition to an expanded address history for the life of the SSN. This expanded address history shows all the addresses where an applicant has resided and is used to select the counties to run for the County Criminal Search. All records are also indexed against a deceased registry to verify validity. The SSN Trace is also a great tool for ensuring an applicant isn’t intentionally omitting an address from an application, where criminal activity may have occurred.
