The criminal court search is a name check for any criminal history (Felony and misdemeanors where available), at the county or state level. Due to the fact that a majority of crimes occur within the jurisdiction of an individual′s home address, the county criminal search or statewide criminal search should be ordered based on the most current address history of the applicant, or the address with the longest residence within the past 7 years.
***All services ordered should be related to the actual job descriptions and functions of the particular applicant′s job. For further explanation of these packages and the services offered, please feel free to contact one of our qualified representatives at (800) 319-5581.
