State Criminal Background Check

A statewide criminal background check is among the most comprehensive and broad-scoped type of criminal records search available. A statewide criminal records search is generally conducted through a central repository that includes information from the state’s participating jurisdictions. A state’s central repository primarily houses information provided by county courts and law enforcement.

Understanding the value of a state criminal background check requires recognition that the quality and completeness of state data relies entirely on what information is reported, how it is reported, and when it is reported by the local authority.

Best Practices for Statewide Criminal Records Searches:

State level criminal records searches should be used in combination with specific local jurisdiction searches determined by locations of potential criminal activity discovered in the statewide search. Local searches are also recommended in combination with the state search in order to compensate for missing information that can result from delays between local case filings and availability in the statewide repository.
