Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between sealing and expunging a record in Kentucky?
In Kentucky, a sealed record is hidden from public view but still exists and remains visible to law enforcement, licensing boards, and some employers. An expunged record is treated by Kentucky law as if it never happened — though FBI and federal records may persist regardless of state action. The relief process in Kentucky is known as "expungement" and runs through the Circuit Court.
Does an active warrant show up on a background check in Kentucky?
Yes. Active warrants in Kentucky appear on name-based criminal background checks through the Kentucky State Police system the moment they are entered. Some employers also run a separate NCIC warrant query, which catches federal warrants as well.
How do I find someone's immigration court case?
The Executive Office for Immigration Review (EOIR) operates an Automated Case Information system at acis.eoir.justice.gov. Search by A-Number to find the next hearing date, court location, and case status. EOIR is part of the U.S. Department of Justice and handles all federal immigration court proceedings.
Are Kentucky marriage records public?
Marriage records in Kentucky are generally public — anyone can verify that a marriage occurred and request a non-certified copy. Certified copies (needed for legal purposes like name changes or immigration) may be restricted to the spouses, immediate family, or those with a court order.
