Statewide Warrant Search uses the Soundex search protocol, which is based on the phonetic sound of search criteria as opposed to the strict spelling and order of the criteria.
The required Search Level field allows for the selection of accuracy of the Soundex function. More exact settings will limit the number of returns but may exclude the searched for name. Conversely, less exact settings may return large numbers of Person names. These are the available levels. Click a link for information on that level:
1- Near-Exact Match/fixed name order
2 – Soundex/fixed name order (Default)
3 – Near-Exact Match/variable name order
4 – Soundex/variable name order
5 – Broadest Soundex/variable name order
