The Basics About Warrant Records
Warrant Records are all public information. This includes all warrants that were served and by whom. Warrant records are kept by the county where the warrant was served, while county clerks usually maintain the same records, except for federal warrants. States tend to retain warrants that are granted out of state. Warrant records are available to the public.
A warrant is an order from a court that says that a person has committed a specific crime. When applying for a job, most employers will want to see evidence of the applicant’s bail agreement, because most employers do not make any attempt to verify the person’s bail history. In other cases, a person may be approached on the street, given a warrant, and asked to appear in court. In those cases, the person may have to disclose that he or she had been arrested, as well as give contact information. Warrant records allow police to investigate a crime more thoroughly.
Warrant records are considered public record. These records are available to the general public. If you are interested in checking up on someone, you can either call the local police station or county sheriff’s office, or do an Internet search on your favorite search engine. You may be able to find out the person’s criminal history if there are any charges against him or her.
Warrant records allow employers to perform background checks without asking any personal information about applicants. If you are interested in hiring a person, and you suspect that the person may be breaking the law by doing a certain act, you can use the criminal background records to check up on the person. You will probably be asked for permission by the person you are checking up on. If you are not sure, then you should not ask for it.
It may be easy to assume that you will never need to look at someone’s criminal background unless they are suspected of some sort of criminal activity. If you do run across a situation where you think that your neighbor may have a criminal past, it is a good idea to contact the court house in which the person was born. You will need all of the correct details to obtain the correct records. Some states list births and deaths, while others may require birth and death certificates. It would be a good idea to call the local courthouse in order to find out what type of information they may be able to provide for you.
