Database For Free New York Arrest Records

By Claire Dowell


It is the job of the New York Department of Corrections to maintain New York Arrest Records. It is also their job to accept requests by any member of the general public because the documents are considered as public records. There are certain guidelines and requirements to get the documents and if they are not met by the requestor, the department has the right to reject requests. People who conduct history checks on others can get a lot of important information from the documents and that is why they are requested often.

Arrests are recorded even if they do not lead to an imprisonment. Some of the information you can find on an arrest record include the name of the arrested person, age, address, nature of the crime, date and place where it was committed, and the name of the arresting officer.

To start a search, you must secure a request form at the department or download it from their website. Fill out the form with the required details and make sure that the details you are providing are accurate because it will affect the outcome of the search. Certain fees for every request placed. Fees can be paid by money order or through a certified check and are non-refundable.

It is allowed to acquire your own arrest document in the New York. If you spot any error on your document, you can send a request to the Department of corrections to inspect it and make the appropriate corrections. It is also allowed to acquire the documents of other people but the process is not as easy as acquiring your own. Law enforcers, lawyers, landlords and employers are given the right to access the documents of other people. You can also check the criminal background of a future spouse. If you are not any of the aforementioned people, you need to have a valid reason for wanting to acquire the documents. If the department is not satisfied with your reason, they have the right to reject your request.

Another source for arrest files are online search tools. There are those that authorized by the government to keep the files and supply them to whoever places a request for them. There are many of such search tools, but, unfortunately, there are also search tools that claim to be legit when they are really not. Prior to making a decision on which search tool to use, run a history check on them. Collect as much information as you can about them until you get sold to the idea that they are indeed legit providers of the files.

There are two types of service providers: fee based and free service providers. Fee-based service providers can provide you with an extensive version of arrest records for a certain fee. You may even get your hands on pieces of information that are considered confidential. Free service providers can allow you to perform a Free Arrest Records Search. You will most likely be provided with the basic pieces of information regarding an arrest. You can start a search by providing the full name of a person. Of course, it will help a great deal if you can provide additional information.
