Criminal History Name Search
The Conviction Database is public record information extracted from the DPS Computerized
Criminal History System (CCH). The information contained in CCH is only public if
a conviction or deferred adjudication has been reported to the Department on an
offense.
What Data Can I Search?
Arrests, prosecutions and the disposition of the case for persons arrested for Class
B misdemeanor or greater violation of Texas criminal statutes, as well as Class C
convictions or deferred adjudications that are reported to the Department. The statute
identifies many of the actual data elements. In addition, although not required by
statute, CCH has traditionally included limited supervision data reported to
DPS
by
TDCJ.
