Minnesota Criminal Records

The Computerized Criminal History (CCH) System is the official state database for Minnesota criminal records. It is the State central repository for data on subjects arrested for felony, gross misdemeanor, enhanced misdemeanor, and some misdemeanor offenses. The Minnesota criminal records stored here are used by the criminal justice community. Criminal justice authorities base their decisions regarding investigations, arrest, bail/bond, criminal charges, plea bargains, convictions, probation, and placement in correctional facilities on the Minnesota criminal records database. The CCH System is also used during mandated background and Minnesota criminal records checks on individuals. This especially applies when the individual is seeing employment or licensing for various positions. Researchers can also make use of the public information contained in CCH System for a variety of purposes.
What is included in Minnesota Criminal Records?
The CCH System contains Minnesota criminal records of all arrests and convictions. All law enforcement agencies in the state, as required by State statutes, are mandated to report juvenile felony and gross misdemeanor arrests, and adult felony, gross misdemeanor, enhanced gross misdemeanor and targeted misdemeanor arrests to the Bureau of Criminal Apprehension (BCA). The BCA will then store all these reports in the CCH System. Therefore, information in the CCH System thus includes Minnesota criminal records of juvenile felony and juvenile gross misdemeanor arrests. In addition to that, it also stores Minnesota criminal records of adult felony, adult gross misdemeanor, adult enhanced gross misdemeanor and adult targeted misdemeanor arrests.
The law enforcement agencies are not required to report other misdemeanor arrests but if they so choose, they have that option. Based on this, the CCH System really only includes Minnesota criminal records of a serious nature, e.g. serious misdemeanors and felonies, and only very few minor misdemeanors.
During an arrest, the law enforcement agency makes an arrest fingerprint card and sends this to the BCA. The data from each card is recorded in the CCH System. Also, aside from Minnesota criminal records of arrests, the CCH also includes reports regarding convictions, court dispositions, probation, and custody actions from the Courts and Corrections divisions.
What does a no record response on a Minnesota criminal records inquiry mean?
A no record response on a Minnesota criminal records inquiring could mean a number of things. The CCH System works in such a way that it tries to find an exact match of the information that you provide in order to perform the search. One possible reason for a no record response is that the subject does not have Minnesota criminal records. Other possibilities include the following:
The subjects Minnesota criminal records are not public data.The subjects name was entered incorrectly.A nickname was entered, rather than the name associated with the record.Criminal data about the subject was not sent to the Bureau of Criminal Apprehension.The subjects record is under a former name, such as a maiden name.
Important Things to Note about Minnesota Criminal Records
The Bureau of Criminal Apprehension, which is responsible for maintaining the statewide Minnesota criminal records stored in the CCH System, may not have access to all criminal history information. Some databases maintained by local police departments, courts, and federal agencies, such as the FBI, are not included in the BCA CCH.
