When a US County Criminal Court Record check is complete, you can view the results from the case’s case details page. The information in the report is populated as the checks in the case are completed.
Learn more in our US County Criminal Court Record checks help article.
Note: If an SSN Trace is also ordered and results in a discrepancy, the US County Criminal Court Record check will be cancelled and no results will be reported.
An US SSN Trace will automatically be added to US County Criminal Court Record checks with 7 years address history and is optional for those that only use a current address.

Reports in progress
If at least one US Criminal check exists in an application and at least one check within that application is still in progress, a temporary in progress message will display inside the results of all completed or cancelled checks within that application. Once all checks are back, the message will be automatically removed.
Example: An application includes a County Criminal check, Sex Offender Registry check (SOR), and Employment Verification check. If the Employment Verification and SOR checks are completed but the County Criminal check is still in progress, the message will appear in both the Employment Verification and SOR check sections to make it clear that there are still pending checks.
Report in progress message:
Some results of this background check are still pending. To remain compliant with applicable regulations—including the FCRA for US applicants—no decisions should be made until all checks are complete and results have been returned.
