Why doesn’t my Court Records and Bookings Monitoring report have any information in it? This is usually a good thing! It means that we didn’t find a match to your personal information in our court records and bookings data. This may be due to one of the following:

  • You have never been convicted of a crime
  • Your identity has not been stolen for the purpose of committing a crime
  • Your court records have been expunged or your court records have not yet been updated in the public records database

What records does Court Records and Bookings Monitoring search for my personal information? Court Records and Bookings Monitoring searches court records and bookings data sourced from the following places:

  • Over 509 million criminal court records mapping to federal, state, city, and county level jurisdictions
  • Over 60 million incarceration records spread across 2,100 police organizations covering over 70% of national bookings
  • 99 million Department of Corrections (DOC) parole, probation, and incarceration records
  • Over 4.9 million warrant records. 98 county, state and city level warrants reporting 664 of 3,248 counties in 50 states and Puerto Rico
  • Over 9 million arrest records
  • Over 330 thousand government records, such as Most Wanted and terrorist lists

Does, Court Records and Bookings Monitoring report on records from all states and counties? No. Court records data restricted states and territories include Maine, Wyoming, South Dakota, District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico. Department of Corrections data restricted states include Arkansas, Colorado, District of Columbia, Delaware, Hawaii, Massachusetts, South Dakota, Virginia, Washington, and Wyoming.

What if I see court records or bookings data that isn’t mine? False matches can occur as a result of an individual having the same name and/or date of birth as you. This can usually be resolved by calling the relevant courthouse to make sure the records belong to another individual. If the courthouse confirms that the records in question relate to your identity – usually done by confirming your SSN or driver’s license number – and you did not commit the infraction, you may be a victim of identity theft. If you are concerned, please contact customer support.

How soon will I receive a notification after a new court record is entered or a booking incident occurs? You should see a notification within a month from the date a new court record is entered, and between 36-48 hours after the booking, an incident occurs.

What time range does my initial Court Records and Bookings Monitoring report cover? Your initial report includes court records and bookings data from the past 10 years.

Important Product Notes:

Law Enforcement Agencies do not use a common system or process for reporting criminal records and there is no strict standard enforced for submitting the information. This results in data that is not uniform across jurisdictions. For example, the offense description and offense codes could vary across jurisdictions even though the actual offense was the same; or the case number can be unique within a jurisdiction and the same number can be used in a separate jurisdiction to identify a different case.
