Frequently Asked Questions
Can I find out if someone is divorced in Missouri?▼
Yes. Search the Circuit Court case index for the person's name in the county where they lived. Most Missouri counties offer free online case-search portals. The state vital records office also issues divorce verifications for a fee.
How long does an arrest stay on my record in Missouri if I wasn't convicted?▼
In Missouri, an arrest stays on your record indefinitely unless you petition the court to seal or expunge it, even if charges were dropped or you were found not guilty. Missouri's rules for clearing non-conviction records are stricter than for convictions — start with the Missouri State Highway Patrol – Criminal Records.
How do I find divorce records in Missouri?▼
Divorce decrees in Missouri are filed with the Clerk of the Circuit Court (the trial court handling family matters). The case file is generally public, but the final decree and any sealed financial disclosures may require a written request and a fee.
Does an active warrant show up on a background check in Missouri?▼
Yes. Active warrants in Missouri appear on name-based criminal background checks through the Missouri State Highway Patrol – Criminal Records system the moment they are entered. Some employers also run a separate NCIC warrant query, which catches federal warrants as well.
