ACCESS TO ALASKA STATE CRIMINAL RECORDS

To find out if an individual has a criminal record in the state of Alaska we check the state repository, the relevant county criminal court records, or civil court records.  

Four (4) Judicial Districts comprise the state of Alaska. Located within each District is a Superior and District Court. Superior Courts hold records for felonies, major misdemeanors and civil case filings involving amounts over $25,000. District Courts hold records of civil case filings involving amounts of less than $25,000.

Signed release IS required along with fingerprints for a statewide search.
State records contain information submitted to the State of Alaska from each county and other criminal justice agencies. Records are updated monthly.
Records are available for convictions dating before 1989 to today.  
Cost is $70 per individual searched statewide. It is only $20 for a county criminal.
Delivery Time: Turnaround time is approximately 16 business days for a statewide search. County criminal records will be back in 1-3 business days. Results are e-mailed to you, or faxed on request. We cannot guarantee turnaround time as we are dependent on the state getting back to us in a timely fashion.
                             
Civil Lawsuits
Civil law is the law that deals with relationships between individuals. (A corporation is an "individual" under the law.) Civil suits are between private persons, such as a suit by one person to collect a debt from another person. (The word "suit" simply means "civil court case" and the word "sue" means to start a civil lawsuit.) The State of Alaska, just like an individual, can bring a civil action. An example of a civil case many people know about is a civil suit resulting from an automobile accident. One person sues another person for damages to his car or to himself from the accident. Some other kinds of civil cases are suits to collect money, suits for divorce and suits to recover property.
             
Criminal Records

Criminal law is the law under which the federal, state, city or borough government brings a case against a person who has done something against the interest of all people. The government charges an individual with violating a criminal law or ordinance (city law) and brings a court action to punish and rehabilitate a person for what he did, so that he and other people will not do those kinds of acts in the future. The charging of a person with a crime and bringing him to trial is called a prosecution. The prosecution for all cases under the criminal law must be brought in the name of the federal, state, city or borough government, even though the case may be started by the complaint of a private person who is called the complainant. Some examples of crimes are murder, assault, disorderly conduct and drunk driving.

A person can do something which can result in both criminal and civil actions. For example, a person who steals a snow machine and wrecks it could be prosecuted by the state for the crime of theft and sued in a civil action for damages by the owner of the snow machine. The state, through the use of the courts, could bring a criminal action to punish the person by fining him, putting him in jail or both. The owner could demand in a civil court case that the thief pay him for the snow machine he destroyed.
