With this search, we will send a court researcher to the county courthouse. The court researcher will perform a "Hand Search" of the Court's Index and Dockets. A county criminal record search includes a seven-year search for misdemeanor and felony records. Traffic and Summary offenses filed in Justice, Magistrate or Mayor's courts are generally not included. Most counties provide both felony and misdemeanor records. Usually charges and convictions are available. This search is typically returned within 24-72 hours. Statewide Criminal Database searches cover a larger area than a typical County Search, but the County Search may be more accurate and complete.
