Database For Florida Criminal Records

Database For Florida Criminal Records

By Claire Dowell


It is the task of the Florida Department of Corrections to preserve Florida Arrest Records. The public is given access to the documents because they are deemed as part of the public domain. There is a request form that can be obtained from the department or downloaded from their official website that needs to be filled out. It is important that the details you put on the form are accurate because it will be crucial on the success or failure of the search process. When you obtain arrest documents, there are certain fees that you need to comply to. These fees are payable by a certified check or money order and are non-refundable even if the search ends up as a failure.

Every arrest carried out is filed appropriately even if it does not lead to incarceration. Some of the information included on an arrest file are the name of the arrested individual, crime charged against him or her, date and place of arrest, and the name of the arresting officer. An arrest file will not be revealed to the public if the arrested individual is acquitted of the crime charged against him or her.

Requesting your own file is permitted to give way for you to check if the pieces of information written on it are updated. If you spot that there are inaccurate information, you can have it looked at by the Department of Corrections so the proper corrections can be done.

The documents of other people can also be requested but it will be harder to get them because an authorization from the court is required and there are only a handful of people that are granted with such. In addition, the amount of information that one is given varies from situation to situation. Law enforcers and attorneys have are given authorization if they need for a crime investigation. Employers and landlords are only authorized if they use it to screen their applicants. Those that are about to enter marriage are also allowed to check the criminal background of their soon to be husband or wife.

Another source for arrest records are online service providers that are into the business of providing such records to the public. There are two kinds of service providers: fee-based and free service providers. If you go over the Internet, you will find that most of them will claim that they can provide you with high-quality records. However, do remember that not everything that is posted on the Internet is true. Prior to choosing which service provider to use, run a quick background check on them and gather as much information as you can. Go over user reviews and see if past clients were satisfied with the records they were provided with.

You can also get your hands on Free Public Criminal Records. Inquire in your area if there is an archive for them. If you do not find any, you can always conduct an online search. But do not assume that you will get an in-depth version of the files because if it is offered for free, it usually means that you will only be given limited information.
