FAQ
In America you are innocent until proven guilty in a court of law. If you are not convicted, then you are innocent of committing the crime and it would not show up on a standard background check.
Requests for record searches may be made in person in the Criminal Operations Department at any Justice Center. Additionally, Online Case and Calendar access will now allow you to conduct record searches online by case number, person name or business name.
To reach the West Valley Detention Center directly, call 909-350-2476. Attorneys and bails bondsmen may visit the West Valley Detention Center at any time. Members of the clergy should call the Glen Helen Rehabilitation Center at 909-473-1761 during regular business hours to schedule a visit with an inmate.
In addition, a background check may show pending criminal charges and misdemeanor or felony convictions, with a look-back period of seven years. However, non-convictions aren't reported, such as non-pending arrests, charges, or indictments that did not lead to a conviction.
If you have a 10-digit booking number, enter it below and select Search by Booking. Otherwise, enter the Last Name, First Name, DOB (Date of Birth) and Gender. If you don't know the DOB (Date of Birth), enter an approximate age. The search will include 2 years prior and two years after the age entered.
The DOJ is required by law to record summary arrest, detention, disposition, and personal identification information when submitted by a law enforcement agency or court of this state. The record retention policy of the Department is to maintain criminal history information until the subject reaches 100 years of age.
If charges were never filed, petition the arresting agency for relief as contained in Penal Code § 851.8. To do this, complete the Petition to Seal and Destroy Adult Arrest Records Form and then take it to the District Attorney's Office or to the office of the county/city prosecuting agency.
You will need to convince the judge that there was no reason for the officer to arrest you. If no charges were filed or charges were dismissed before trial, you can use the California Department of Justice's Petition to Seal and Destroy Adult Arrest Records (BCIA 8270). Some courts also have local forms you can use.
Misdemeanor arrests should be sealed after 1 year if there are no charges, and felony arrests should be sealed after 3 years if there are no charges. Cases that get dismissed should be cleared immediately. Convictions of cases where you are granted probation should be cleared once the case closes.
