New York Arrest Records Free Information Online

By Ben Kingsley


New York has implemented the Freedom of Information Act. This implementation has turned the personal documents of the residents into open files which mean that the residents have the freedom to access their documents at any moment. NY criminal records are only one of the name documents that the residents can request.

An arrest file of New York is only one of the many types of criminal records that can be requested in the state. These arrest records are issued to individuals who have violated the laws of the nation and the state. Every time an individual has been reported for violating the laws by different enforcing agencies of the state, a new arrest report is generated by each agency. This means that one person can have several arrest records issued by different bodies of the government. Such document can then be obtained at the office that generated the report.

As the name suggest, an arrest record focuses on the details of the arrest. Information such as where and when the arrest was done is documented on the file along with other important details like the case number and the crimes that the individual has committed that lead to his/her arrest. The document would not be complete without some of the personal information of the reported individual such as the place and date of birth and the latest place where he resided. The document would also show all the charges that were filed against the individual as well as the sentence that he/she received for the crimes that was committed. One should know that the document is only available to the public after investigation has been closed or the case has been resolved.

The Court Administration of New York is the one who is responsible for managing the criminal records of the state and this includes the arrest records. Many would think that they can conduct a nationwide criminal check but the only thing possible at the moment is a statewide search. With this, one can only find criminal records for a particular state and not that of the whole country.

Retrieval of an arrest record in the state of New York would mean that a search form has to be filled out. It should contain the basic details of the file that is being requested. This is necessary in order to proceed with the request. One has to pay $65 which serves as a processing fee to start the search. If one cannot personally visit the office, a mail request can be sent to the state office but the result of the search can be obtained only after several days since it was sent.

The Internet allows the retrieval of an arrest record faster since it can be done even without leaving home. One can even search for arrest records for free. There are several websites out there that lets its users have a trial period of at least 7 days. This gives the users enough time to explore the system and then decide if they wish to continue using the service by paying or not.
