Frequently Asked Questions
How do I look up court cases in Madison County?
Madison County court cases are filed with the Circuit Clerk. Search the Media FAQ - State of Mississippi Judiciary portal: https://courts.ms.gov/records/media.php. For federal matters, see PACER.
Can my employer see a sealed record in Mississippi?
Generally, most private employers running a standard name-based check cannot see a sealed Mississippi record. However, government employers, law enforcement, schools, healthcare facilities, and any role requiring a fingerprint-based check can see sealed records under specific statutory exemptions. Confirm specifics with the sealing court.
Does an arrest show up on a background check before conviction in Mississippi?
Yes — in Mississippi, an arrest can appear on a name-based background check from the moment of booking, even before any court ruling. Whether it appears on an employment screening depends on the type of check (name-based vs. fingerprint-based) and how recent the arrest is.
How do I run a Mississippi background check?
Mississippi background checks are handled by the Mississippi Department of Public Safety. Name-based searches are available through the official state portal (per-search fee applies). Fingerprint-based checks — required for licensing, foster care, and many employers — must be submitted through an approved vendor.
