California Criminal Records And Background Checks

By Claire Dowell


Background checking has continued to be an integral part of an employee's trials prior to employment. Such measures are performed routinely by all workplaces and companies all around the world. The main purpose of this action is to prevent potential liabilities in the workplace that can significantly blemish a company's image. To adequately answer these demands, employers require potential candidates to present a copy of their arrest records.

The reasoning behind the above procedures is that criminal records compile a person's encounters with the Law. Infringements contained therein range from misdemeanors to felonies. Other background checking activities that utilize such registers include positions for public office, volunteer work, and the dispensation of government-issued documents such as professional licenses.

As stated by Section 6254(F) of the California Government Code, all concurrent arrest information of persons arrested in the state must be made available to the public. This can only be done when the court proceedings of the case is still ongoing. A case becomes local criminal history information once court decision has been completed. As a result, access to this information in the form of arrest records is now limited to the person arrested, the concerned Law Enforcement entities, and authorized individuals and applicant agencies. Requests for copies of a person's records of arrests that come from third parties will not be honored nor entertained.

Informational copies are otherwise available to the parties not specified in the above legislature. Such versions contain the same information as with their certified counterparts, but they are not valid documents to establish identity.

Arrest records in California are obtained centrally via the California Department of Justice, at the Office of the Attorney General. Obtaining a copy of your own criminal record can only be done if the purpose is to review its accuracy and completeness. The process begins by requesting or downloading a copy of a Request for Live Scan Form from the website of the said department. In the form, you must first check the box in the option for "Record Review" in the "Type of Application" section. Next is to write "Record Review" in the "Reason for Application" part. Finally, fill out the rest of the required fields with the information about the arrest. Present the completed Live Scan Form to any service providers or local Law Enforcement agency near you in order to have your fingerprint scanned electronically. Once completed, send these requisites, together with the imposed payment of $25.00 via check or money order payable to the aforementioned department. Your requests will be processed after a few days to a few weeks after the Department of Justice receives them.

Convenience is a concept that is continuously pursued and maintained by man through constant innovation. In the 21st century, we are fortunate to have been graced by technology that is relentlessly evolving. By utilizing the power of the Internet to deliver information in a fast-paced manner, public records have now made their way online via government institutions and public records retrieval solutions. Such methods can be a solution to immediate matters that require the particular record, and can save good sums of cash, effort and time.
