§ 16.31 Definition of identification record., 28 C.F.R. § 16.31

Code of Federal Regulations
Title 28. Judicial Administration
Chapter I. Department of Justice
Part 16. Production or Disclosure of Material or Information (Refs & Annos)
Subpart C. Production of FBI Identification Records in Response to Written Requests by Subjects Thereof (Refs
& Annos)
28 C.F.R. § 16.31
§ 16.31 Definition of identification record.
Currentness
An FBI identification record, often referred to as a “rap sheet,” is a listing of certain information taken from fingerprint
submissions retained by the FBI in connection with arrests and, in some instances, includes information taken from fingerprints
submitted in connection with federal employment, naturalization, or military service. The identification record includes the
name of the agency or institution that submitted the fingerprints to the FBI. If the fingerprints concern a criminal offense, the
identification record includes the date of arrest or the date the individual was received by the agency submitting the fingerprints,
the arrest charge, and the disposition of the arrest if known to the FBI. All arrest data included in an identification record are
obtained from fingerprint submissions, disposition reports, and other reports submitted by agencies having criminal justice
responsibilities. Therefore, the FBI Criminal Justice Information Services Division is not the source of the arrest data reflected
on an identification record.
