Nationwide Plus Search Description

Nationwide Plus Criminal Background Check

FEDERAL:

The Federal search includes criminal records that fall under Federal Law. These records originate from the Federal District Courts within each state. They can include the interstate distribution of drugs, firearms, kidnapping, embezzlement, and other federal level crimes. Federal offenses are generally felonies and result in at least one year of incarceration.

Results may include docket, offense, and disposition information. This search is conducted with the subject's name only on a per state basis. Due to the wide scope, a common name can generate multiple hits. Therefore, a middle name is highly recommended if available. Currently records date back to the late 1980s.
