A: Database search of over 650 million records that searches candidate identifiers against various jurisdictions throughout the nation for felonies, misdemeanors and traffic violations. Each state varies in the jurisdictions that participate and report into the database.

Database does not house “real time “information. Jurisdictions report at varying times (monthly, quarterly).

• Includes National Sex Offender Registry
• Searching the nation, the search may capture criminal hits from areas outside the counties of residence. Not all jurisdictions report into the database.

• Confirm the complete name F/M/L name was entered correctly along with the DOB/Address SSN
• In order to confirm charges, JDP will need at least two identifiers that match the court records
