NO FCRA USE. This privately operated resource has no government affiliation. It and its advertising partners do not provide tools for credit, employment, insurance, tenant, or other decisions governed by the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA). Its purpose is to identify criminal-record resources for Mitchell County, North Carolina. It is neither a private investigation service nor a consumer reporting agency.
1. What This Website Is
This is a private reference site with no connection to a public office. It does not store official criminal records, submit filings, retrieve files, or conduct official checks.
Its material directs readers to the Mitchell County Sheriff, the North Carolina courts, the State Bureau of Investigation, and the North Carolina Sex Offender and Public Protection Registry. Some pages also connect to outside research tools.
2. Rules for Using This Site
Visitors must not:
- Use the website in violation of federal, North Carolina, or local law
- Threaten, harass, or stalk a person with information found here
- Rely on its content for housing, hiring, credit, or insurance decisions
- Attempt unauthorized entry into any system or account
- Operate automated scrapers, robots, or collection tools against the pages
- Interfere with availability, performance, or another visitor's access
3. No Harassment, Stalking, or Discrimination
No information obtained here or through a linked service may be used to intimidate, stalk, harass, threaten, or discriminate. Misuse can also violate criminal law. The North Carolina Sex Offender and Public Protection Registry is provided for community awareness. Its information does not authorize confrontation, vigilantism, employment blacklisting, or housing discrimination, and the registry warns that criminal misuse may be prosecuted.
4. We Are Not a Consumer Reporting Agency
We are not a consumer reporting agency under the FCRA and do not create consumer reports, credit reports, or official background checks. The website and its advertising partners are not designed to screen applicants, evaluate housing, price insurance, or judge credit. Content and linked tools therefore may not be used to:
- Decide whether to hire or fire someone
- Screen potential renters or housing applicants
- Judge creditworthiness or set insurance premiums
- Determine who qualifies for licenses, permits, or government programs
- Do anything else that falls under FCRA rules
A lawful check for a regulated purpose must come through an authorized North Carolina process or an FCRA-compliant screening company.
5. No Legal Advice
General information about Mitchell County records is not legal advice. Only a licensed North Carolina attorney can assess how an expunction rule, conviction, charge, or warrant applies to a particular set of facts.
6. No Warranties
All content and functions are offered "as is," without a guarantee that:
- The information here is accurate, complete, or current at any given time
- The site will stay up and running without interruptions
- Our pages are free of errors, bugs, or security holes
- Results from our partner search tools will be thorough or accurate
Charges, dismissals, restrictions, and expunctions can change a record after publication. Gaps and delays are unavoidable. No material here is an official statement from a court, sheriff, or government agency.
7. Third-Party Services and Links
External links may lead to courts, sheriff and state-agency sites, legal-aid organizations, or search providers. We do not control those services and are not responsible for their availability, content, fees, or data practices. Their own terms apply.
8. Intellectual Property
Text, graphics, logos, and code belong to Mitchell County Criminal History or its content partners. Written permission is required before copying, modifying, distributing, or creating derivative material.
9. Limits on Our Liability
To the maximum extent allowed by law, we disclaim liability for loss or damage arising from the website, linked services, or reliance on information obtained through either.
10. Indemnification
You agree to defend and hold us harmless from claims or demands caused by your use of the website or breach of these terms, including related legal fees and costs.
11. Governing Law
North Carolina law governs these terms, including applicable protections under G.S. 75-1.1. Government record access remains subject to the North Carolina Public Records Law, and G.S. 15A-152 can impose liability for unlawful dissemination of specified expunged information. Any dispute connected with use of the website must be brought in a court located in North Carolina.
12. Changes to These Terms
Revised terms may be posted at any time and become effective when published on this page.
13. Cutting Off Access
Access may be restricted or ended at any time, with or without prior notice.
