Federal Civil

A Federal Civil case inquiry is a search for any type of federal civil case a particular applicant was involved with.

Unfortunately, federal civil cases usually involve wrongful death or personal injury, but can also include individuals that have worked for the Federal government.

Federal civil inquiries will only obtain federal level cases. To obtain county civil records, employers need a separate inquiry. CI searches each federal jurisdiction the subject has lived in, and typically only goes back 7 to 10 years to find records.

Federal civil searches will not obtain federal criminal information.

Federal civil case information is stored by US Federal courts, and cannot be accessed by the public. The inquiry requires the verifier to input the Nature, and Cause of the suit before searching.
