Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between sealing and expunging a record in Montana?▼
In Montana, 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 Montana law as if it never happened — though FBI and federal records may persist regardless of state action. The relief process in Montana is known as "expungement (misdemeanor) / sealing (non-conviction)" and runs through the District Court.
What's the difference between a bench warrant and an arrest warrant in Montana?▼
An arrest warrant is issued by a judge based on probable cause that a crime was committed. A bench warrant is issued when someone fails to appear in court or violates a court order. Both authorize police to take you into custody in Montana — bench warrants are far more common in traffic and minor cases.
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.
Does an active warrant show up on a background check in Montana?▼
Yes. Active warrants in Montana appear on name-based criminal background checks through the Montana Department of Justice – Division of Criminal Investigation system the moment they are entered. Some employers also run a separate NCIC warrant query, which catches federal warrants as well.
