    The Montana Department of Justice provides a public background check in addition to their police criminal history records. Their background check includes felony charges, arrest and prosecution (RAP sheet) and misdemeanors. However, if you are looking for official full police reports, warrants, criminal court transcripts and field reports needs to be requested from the law enforcement agency or court directly. You can conduct a name based search, or a fingerprint based search which is more accurate. The name search is based just the dob, name and ssn. The federal search is different and is for statutorily authorized persons only.
