Jacksonville Criminal History Rights and Records

Anyone whose name shows up in a Jacksonville Criminal History file has the right to see the record. Ark. Code § 12-12-1013 gives the subject this right. If a file lists the wrong arrest or a charge that was dropped, the subject can ask the agency to fix it. The challenge process runs through Ark. Code § 12-12-211 and ACIC Regulation 7(F). Arkansas State Police runs the fingerprint check to confirm or correct the record at no extra cost.

The fingerprint based match is what makes the state Jacksonville Criminal History check more reliable than a name only look up. Two people can share a name. Only one set of prints will match the actual subject. Local police feed their prints into the ACIC hub. That flow keeps the state record in sync with local arrests in Jacksonville.

Sealing a Jacksonville Criminal Case

Arkansas Code § 16-90-1401 et seq. lays out how a person can ask the court to seal or expunge an old case. Once sealed, the case drops off the public view of ARCH and Search ARCourts. It still exists in the court file, but only courts and law enforcement can see it. Some offenses can never be sealed.

Eligibility depends on the offense, the time since the case ended, and full payment of fines and costs. Jacksonville residents who want to file a sealing petition can get help from the Center for Arkansas Legal Services at (501) 376-3423 or Legal Aid of Arkansas at (870) 972-9224. Both groups offer free help to people who qualify.
