Frequently Asked Questions
How do I look up court cases in Wabash County?
Wabash County court cases are filed with the Circuit Clerk. Search the State of Illinois Office of the Illinois Courts portal: https://www.illinoiscourts.gov/. For federal matters, see PACER.
How long does an arrest stay on my record in Illinois if I wasn't convicted?
In Illinois, an arrest stays on your record indefinitely unless you petition the court to seal or expunge it, even if charges were dropped or you were found not guilty. Illinois's rules for clearing non-conviction records are stricter than for convictions — start with the Illinois State Police.
Does an active warrant show up on a background check in Illinois?
Yes. Active warrants in Illinois appear on name-based criminal background checks through the Illinois State Police system the moment they are entered. Some employers also run a separate NCIC warrant query, which catches federal warrants as well.
Will a criminal conviction lead to deportation?
It depends on the offense, the person's immigration status, and current federal enforcement priorities. Aggravated felonies and crimes of moral turpitude carry the highest immigration risk. Even a sealed or expunged state conviction may still count under federal immigration law. Consult an immigration attorney.
