NO FCRA USE. No government agency operates or endorses this private website. The site and its advertising partners do not offer reports for decisions about credit, employment, tenancy, insurance, or any other matter controlled by the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA). The resource points readers to Montgomery County and North Carolina record custodians. It is not a private investigation company or consumer reporting agency.
1. What This Website Is
Montgomery County Criminal History is a privately operated reference resource, not a government office. It does not hold or obtain official histories, conduct an official check, or file paperwork for a visitor.
The resource identifies custodians such as the Montgomery County Sheriff's Office, Clerk of Superior Court, North Carolina State Bureau of Investigation, and North Carolina Sex Offender and Public Protection Registry. Government access remains subject to the North Carolina Public Records Law, including the special treatment of investigative and arrest information under G.S. 132-1.4. The resource also connects visitors to optional third-party search tools.
2. Rules for Using This Site
Continued use requires each visitor to refrain from the following conduct:
- Breaking a federal, North Carolina, or local law through use of the service
- Using information to stalk, threaten, or harass another person
- Applying any site material to a decision regulated by the FCRA
- Attempting access to a system or account without authorization
- Collecting material with a bot, scraper, or comparable automated tool
- Interfering with site function or another person's ability to use it
3. No Harassment, Stalking, or Discrimination
No visitor may use information found here or through a linked tool to intimidate, threaten, stalk, harass, or unlawfully discriminate against another person. The rule is especially important for the North Carolina Sex Offender and Public Protection Registry. Registry data serves public safety and community awareness, and G.S. 14-208.15A makes specified misuse of that information a crime. It must never support vigilantism or unlawful action against a listed person.
4. We Are Not a Consumer Reporting Agency
We are not a consumer reporting agency as the FCRA defines that term, and no consumer, credit, or background report is created here. The presence of an advertising partner does not make the resource a screening service. Neither page content nor linked search output may be used to:
- Reach a decision concerning employment
- Assess a prospective tenant or housing applicant
- Determine creditworthiness or insurance terms
- Resolve eligibility for a permit, license, or public benefit
- Support any other decision governed by the FCRA
A person who needs information for a regulated purpose must obtain it from an authorized FCRA-compliant provider and satisfy every applicable legal requirement.
5. No Legal Advice
Explanations of Montgomery County records provide general reference material, not legal advice. Only a licensed North Carolina attorney can advise how a warrant, charge, conviction, or expunction provision affects particular facts.
6. No Warranties
Every page and function is provided "as is," without a promise that:
- Content will always be complete, current, and free of error
- A partner's search output will be accurate or comprehensive
- Access will continue without delay or interruption
- Every defect or security risk has been eliminated
Charges and records may be filed, amended, dismissed, restricted, or expunged, and updates can be delayed or incomplete. Nothing published here is an official statement from a court, sheriff, or other public body.
7. Third-Party Services and Links
A link may open a court, law-enforcement office, state agency, legal source, or commercial search provider. We have no control over that destination's access, charges, content, or treatment of data. The destination's terms govern once the visitor follows the link.
8. Intellectual Property
Rights in the text, graphics, logos, and code belong to Montgomery County Criminal History or the relevant content partner. Copying, redistribution, adaptation, or creation of derivative material requires prior written permission.
9. Limits on Our Liability
As far as governing law permits, we accept no liability for loss or damage resulting from the website, its contents, or a service reached through a link.
10. Indemnification
A visitor agrees to indemnify us and hold us harmless against claims, demands, proceedings, and related legal expense arising from that visitor's use or violation of these terms.
11. Governing Law
These terms are governed by North Carolina law. A dispute connected with use of Montgomery County Criminal History must be filed in a court within North Carolina.
12. Changes to These Terms
These conditions may be revised. The replacement version becomes effective when it appears on this page.
13. Cutting Off Access
Access may be limited, suspended, or terminated at any time without prior notice.
14. Severability
If a provision is found invalid or unenforceable, every remaining provision stays in effect. Any modification to the affected language extends only as far as enforceability requires.
15. Questions
The Contact page provides the channel for questions limited to these terms.
