  • How do I access arrests from a particular date?
    Birmingham has an arrest inquiry webpage but does not go back far. The Birmingham police records division provides 'accident, incident, offense, and archived reports' according to their site; archived reports cost $25, any report ten years or older.
  • Where can I find out if I have a warrant for my arrest?
    It depends on where the warrant is from! For Birmingham, the Jefferson county sheriffs department's website says they will not release that information and mainly advises the person to turn themselves in. Look into using the public access terminal at the Birmingham Municipal Justice Center, which will give you a few options. Warrants are issued by courts, not by the police or sheriffs. However, they have the information since they must execute the warrant.
  • Where can I find a copy of an arrest record from the mid-1960s in the Criminal Justice Information Center?
    ACJIC was established in 1975, so records before that were not given to them until after. Arrests do not always result in convictions; background checks generally provide records of convicted persons. Arrest reports are requested directly from the department other than a central depository from the state of Alabama. Arrest history differs from a complete detailed report, sometimes called a rap sheet, which stands for Records of Arrest and Prosecution. This information is generally utilized by police agencies that have arrests without convictions. Attorneys and others related to the criminal case also sometimes request and qualify to view an arrest history.
  • How can an individual or sole proprietor operating a company obtain an official background check?
    Criminal records are generally the essential part of pre-employment screening or when hiring someone for personal purposes such as contractors, home health care, and others, not the company involved. Driving records and professional license verifications are also essential elements of a full background check; this mainly depends on the type of business. The state and city governments can access several valuable options when looking for a criminal history check. Significant cities and some smaller municipalities' law enforcement agencies, such as the police departments, and their websites contain sources to order and request reports of local offenses, violations, whether felony or misdemeanor, and incidents. The state of Alabama also offers two options to conduct a statewide search. Public sources are available for current and prospective employees that qualify to use the Alabama Background Check System (ABC); this is the official state records check. Another service to obtain criminal information better geared toward the general public's request is provided by the Alabama Criminal Justice Information Center. The general public can see how to get someone else's criminal history or your own. This search is an official background search from the state; other entities or agencies may have a different interpretation of an official search.
