Compliance · Sanctions Check name-based match · not verified CLEAR
U.S. Treasury Sanctions Check ?The U.S. Treasury keeps a list of people and companies that Americans can't legally do business with, including terrorists, drug traffickers, and sanctioned foreign officials. It's called the SDN list. We refresh our copy every day from OpenSanctions.org. It currently has 19,700 entries. ✓ Clear
We checked the U.S. Treasury's sanctions list (19,700 entries). We screened every party name listed on this case — 1 name in total (Smith County Jail) — against that list. A name match alone would not confirm identity.
No match. None of the names listed as parties on this case appear on the U.S. sanctions list.
Related Cases not surfaced for this case. Surname-matching needs a person on one side of the case with a first and last name we can identify; this case doesn't have a searchable party name on either side, so we don't show speculative matches.
