What Is an Arkansas Criminal Record?

Commonly referred to as a rap sheet, a criminal record is an official document that provides specifics of a person’s history with the police and the judicial system. What is included in a criminal record may differ based on the age of the individual plus the state where she or he perpetrated criminal acts. Information like this is used for background checks and other instances for which a person’s criminal history is important. A more simple rap sheet will only contain a list of crimes that a person has been found guilty of. More in-depth criminal court documents will supply specifics of the case as well as the consequences.

Most Common Crimes Which Show up on Arrest Records in Arkansas.

Arkansas Drug-Related Crimes
Drug offenses could be prosecuted under either federal or state laws. Federal government laws typically take care of the more extreme cases that include harsh penalties. However, the state has a small margin for handling such claims. They have to make certain they don’t conflict with anything punishable at the federal level. Regardless of the type of drug crime, having them on your record can have serious consequences.
Arkansas Larceny / Theft
Larceny, based on the UCR (Uniform Crime Reporting, a department of the FBI,) is defined as illegal taking, transporting, leading or riding away of items owned by somebody else. Certain widely stolen property includes bikes, motor vehicle parts along with related components. Additional offenses in this area include shoplifting or pickpocketing.
Arkansas Burglary
As opposed to robbery, which is identified as a violent crime which includes causing harm to other people, burglary is a crime against other individuals’ premises. When someone engages in burglary, it signifies that they have entered or tried to enter a house or building with the express objective of removing another person’s belongings in theft.
Arkansas Robbery
Someone commits robbery if, in the act of theft, that person hurts another person, threatens to cause harm to another individual, or physically removed possessions from a person. A certain subsection to this law applies to anybody who demands money from a banking institution, no matter whether he or she uses a written note.
Arkansas Assault/Battery
It is a fine line that distinguishes between assault and battery. If an individual is put in fear that they can be hurt, say for example a person draws back to strike them in the face, then it is assault. If someone is hit, then it is categorized under the battery charge.
Arkansas DWI/DUI
DWI or DUI serves as a phrase that covers most criminal acts surrounding the unlawful use of a vehicle while intoxicated, on drugs, alcohol or both. Specific charges in connection with driving drunk may be distinctive in particular states. Classifying a criminal act as a DUI depends on multiple components. The driver’s age, the type of vehicle and intoxication thresholds all play in, as do the damaging of property and corresponding injuries or fatalities brought on in the course of an automobile accident.
Arkansas Disorderly Conduct
This category can include a diverse array of various criminal activities, but commonly involves disruptive or disturbing conduct that takes place in public. Quite often disorderly conduct is activities that endanger others or creates fear in them. If an individual is merely charged with disorderly conduct, then repercussions may be small like minor fines; conversely, if someone commits a number of crimes or is especially disorderly, then the consequences could be stiffer.
Arkansas Criminal Traffic Violations
The majority of situations involving traffic violations require merely administrative actions. This is because numerous traffic violations have been decriminalized in most states. Even so, certain traffic violations could have criminal sanctions that may be either misdemeanors or felonies, dependant on their dynamics.
Arkansas Fraud
Fraud is dishonesty used purposely for personal gain. The two major forms of crime that fall under this group are identity and credit card scams. Frequently, cybercriminals get into computers and other devices that do not have the appropriate protection configurations. By getting into somebody’s computer or tablet, they are able to get sensitive information and make transactions using credit cards or checking accounts.
Arkansas Vandalism
‘Vandalism’ is a generalized term inclusive of much illegal activity surrounding damages or defacement of private and public property. Specific local and state governments may use the following corresponding terms for these types of violations: graffiti, unlawful or harmful mischief and property damage.

Types of Arkansas Arrest Records.

Arkansas Infractions Records.
Infraction offenses are simply modest crimes that usually come with a fine as opposed to a jail sentence. These can also be identified as petty crimes, with regard to the circumstance. Infractions include traffic violations like speeding, parking errors, noise violations, littering, and disobeying building codes. If somebody commits an infraction, they could be facing fines but these violations have the least effect on their lives over-all.
Arkansas Misdemeanor Arrest.
Misdemeanor offenses are middle of the road in severity and are generally often punished by larger sized fines. They may, however, result in jail time, which is typically less than 12 months. Individuals convicted of a misdemeanor who are given jail time will probably serve time in a county or local jail instead of a state or federal prison. As with small offenses, misdemeanors normally come with a shortened trial, and defendants generally don’t have the legal right to a court-appointed legal professional if they are unable to afford one on their own.
Arkansas Felony Arrest.
Felonies are major violations. The offenses may be violent or nonviolent in nature, but these tend to be more substantial unlawful acts that are punishable by imprisonment. When there’s a sentence in excess of 12 months in a local jail or a federal prison center, then it falls under this classification.
Arkansas Juvenile Arrest.
A juvenile arrest is the arrest of a minor, or an individual under the age of eighteen. Contrary to popular belief, this record can follow individuals even after they reach their adult years. Underage criminals can still encounter lingering repercussions of their violations for years to come. Individual states, having said that, may in some cases have a process available for petitioning the sealing or clearing of a juvenile record.
Arkansas Arrest Warrant.
When someone has got a warrant out for their arrest, it indicates that it has been produced by a judge or magistrate. The warrant is issued using a sworn affidavit that offers proof that a crime has been committed and that the individual is believed responsible. Whenever a police officer receives an arrest warrant, they are supposed to then go and arrest the individual so they can be transported to jail. Most arrest warrants are essential if a crime has been committed but it wasn’t directly seen by a police officer.
Difference Between Prison vs Jail Arrests in Arkansas.
The terms “jail” and “prison” are frequently used interchangeably. While each of them references places where men and women are held, there is, in fact, a considerable amount of difference between the two. Local government authorities run jails (often a county), and they are also employed to detain those who are pending trial or anyone who has received shorter sentences. Prisons, in contrast, hold individuals who have been found guilty of more dangerous crimes, usually those that have a sentence of one year or more.
Arkansas Expungement of Records – Forms can be found at https://www.acic.org/forms
Some cases or conviction records may be expunged or sealed. Certain procedures pertain to expungements in each state, along with what may and may not be sealed varies. In most cases, it’s no obstacle to expunge misdemeanor violations, however, it is more difficult to have felony records sealed. When anyone desires a background check, later on, the criminal conviction records won’t be devolved.
