Need to get prior arrest information


NV, FL, CA

I need to see if there is any way that I can use the states .gov or local court websites to see information (Event Number, Exact Day of citation/arrest. and overall record made public.)
about previous arrests/tickets I have been given in the past.

I don't have a lot of money and no long distance for my phone right now.
The only stable thing I have is this internet connection, and though I have that I can't find any means yet to get this kind of information. I called local the local traffic court here but they were not of much help, they told me to see if I can find Mailing addresses for record keepers in the respective states I got these violations in.

All i want to know is if there is just a database available through the state's websites that will let me enter my personal information and get a listing about my tickets.

Please help if you can,

-CiD.

In my NC county the sheriff runs the jail, and the sheriff's web site contains information on warrants and arrest records. With some counties, you can only find information on current inmates. It just depends on the county. Try that first.

As far as your driving record, you can request your information from the National Driver Register (or it might be "Registry"). According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, you can call 202-366-4800 for more information. I happened to have that info because I just looked it up to answer a question on another thread. I didn't even know there was a NDR until tonight.

Also, our local police will run a background check for $5.00. Check with yours.

There may be other resources for you, but I don't know of any. Look for further responses, but you might not get any until tomorrow.

In California only some counties have court info or citations on line - there is no single repository for this info. You can also call them via phone and see what info they can give you.
