Every citizen has the right to access the records because they are deemed as part of the public domain. The department is obliged to entertain requests as long as the proper procedures are followed.

California is a very big state and even though police enforcers are scatter all over, it is still quite difficult to maintain the peace and order because it has the largest population in all of the United States. Allowing the public to have access to criminal records gives them vital pieces of information that could save them from criminals.

Criminal documents contain vital pieces of information that are very useful especially for people that want to check the criminal backgrounds of others. The Department of Justice run their own online database and in that database are two types of request form, namely: the California Background Check Request form and the Live Scan form. There are fields that requestors are obliged to fill-out before they can send it back to the office. A live scan can be procured at a local Police Department or at a sheriff's office and fees are different depending on the county. A fee of $25 per copy will be charged to the requestor and another one for procuring a live scan.
