IS THERE A STATEWIDE OR NATIONWIDE CRIMINAL SEARCH AVAILABLE?
A. THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS A NATIONWIDE CRIMINAL SEARCH AVAILABLE. OUR CRIMINAL AND CIVIL SEARCHES ARE OBTAINED BY OPEN RECORD COURT RECORDS ON THE STATE LEVEL. WE MUST SEARCH BY JURISDICTION. JURISDICTION COULD MEAN SEVERAL OR ONE OR TWO CITIES INCLUDED IN ONE JURISDICTION. MARYLAND IS THE ONLY STATE THAT SERVES AS ONE JURISDICTION, SO WHEN YOU SEARCH THE STATE OF MARYLAND WE WILL SEARCH ALL CITIES IN THE STATE OR COUNTIES OF MARYLAND. WASHINGTON, D.C. SERVES AS ONE JURISDICTION AS WELL.
