Several states have implemented promising practices for improved record reporting to the National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS). The promising practices involve identifying, collecting, maintaining, automating, and transmitting information that determines whether a person is prohibited by federal or state law from possessing or receiving a firearm, and that improves the availability of these records to national systems. Several practices focus on how to improve reporting of mental health information, while others address how to determine relevant records, how to facilitate broader coordination, or other process improvement efforts.
Arizona — Creating a SharePoint Site to Coordinate NICS Work
Arizona — Creating County Record Briefs Focused on the Completeness of Criminal History Records for NICS Disqualifying Data
Connecticut — Using Visual Flow Charts to Document "As Is" Data Flow
Florida — Identifying Disqualifying Mental Health Dispositions
Illinois — Improve Tracking of Involuntary Commitments
New Jersey — Civil Commitment Automated Tracking System (CCATS)
New York — Automate Communication Between Mental Health Record Holders and NICS Index
New York — Establish a Misdemeanor Crime of Domestic Violence through Legislation
Oregon — Implementing Live Scan Devices in Courts to Improve Record Matching
Texas — Conducting Training & Outreach with Court Clerks
Virginia — Automate Mental Health Record Transfer to Repository
Providing access to these best practices through the BJS website responds to requirements in the NICS Improvement Amendments Act of 2007 (P.L. 110-180) and the recent GAO Report, Gun Control: Sharing Promising Practices and Assessing Incentives Could Better Position Justice to Assist States in Providing Records for Background Checks (GAO-12-684).

Alaska ($808,569) – The Alaska Department of Public Safety (DPS) will use funding for three Criminal Justice Technicians (CJTs) and one Criminal Justice Specialist to maintain and update the NICS Indices and III. These duties include processing NICS requests; manually entering and maintaining non-criminal records, state probationary conditions which disqualify an individual from owning or possessing firearms; Brady qualifying domestic violence protective orders; and researching Misdemeanor Crimes of Domestic Violence (MCDV) convictions for submission into the NICS Indices. Each MCDV conviction must be assessed to determine if it constitutes a firearm disqualification; there are roughly 61,000 convictions to be reviewed. There are currently over 157,000 records with missing dispositions in the repository. Funding will be used for one CJT to research and update these records. Additionally, DPS will also use funding to replace the Permits and Licensing Unit’s program staff’s workstations that are at end of life and out of warranty. Travel funds will be used for staff members to attend the FBI NICS conference. DPS will subgrant funds to Alaska Court System for its eFile project. The ACS’ eFile courtroom solution includes the ability to pre-populate electronic forms that can be edited and finalized from the bench. A Programmer Analyst is needed to maintain and continue to improve this system and electronic forms, and the timeliness of dispositions issued from it. Two Records Clerks will continue to prepare for digitizing a backlog of criminal case files pre-dating eFile to increase timely accessibility to criminal dispositions needed at the state and federal level.
Arizona ($1,844,414) – The Arizona Criminal Justice Commission (ACJC) will use funds towards the following projects: 1) NICS Task Force planning and oversight. Funds will be used to support a consultant and project manager for 24 months to continue with the progress in achieving project goals by the Arizona NICS Task Force and Arizona NICS Records Improvement Plan. The Consultant will ensure the timely completion of tasks assigned to project resources as designated in the schedule. Support from a Project Manager is required to continue gathering critical information to establish requirements, functional specifications, and technical design recommendations. 2) NICS Record Improvement Plan activities. Under the direction of the Task Force, sub-committees will continue assisting in the progress of the strategic plan by addressing challenges and gaps identified through analysis. Sub-committees include: records research and analysis, legal, privacy, and policy. Funding is requested to support program and financial management performed by the ACJC System Improvement Program Manager. 3) Research pending Superior Court cases. The Arizona Supreme Court will use funds to research the pending Superior Court cases for which the Clerk of the Court had never received a final disposition report. Plans are to use NICS funds to automate approximately 4,500 of the 134,714 non-automated Arizona criminal history records and assist in clearing the backlog of the remaining criminal history records collection. Funds will also allow staff to work on day-to-day tasks that are not in backlog but require timely entry/modifications in the ACCH. 4) Phoenix Police Department’s Disposition Project - The Phoenix Police Department will hire temporary staff to work collaboratively with their law enforcement partners to identify root causes of unreported dispositions, come to mutual agreement on how to fix the issues moving forward, identify programs and tools to help report more timely to the Arizona Department of Public Safety, provide training to existing staff in how to submit corrections and update final dispositions as well as create a plan with mutually agreeable rules for updating older unreported dispositions in order to clear out the over 900,000 backlog of unreported final dispositions.
Delaware ($75,937) – The Delaware State Police, State Bureau of Identification, will use funds to ensure that mental health records contained in the State of Delaware’s NICS G4 database are complete and accurate. The Delaware Criminal Justice Information System (DELJIS) is responsible for the development and maintenance of the State’s criminal justice information system, including ensuring the completeness and accuracy of records contained within the system. DELJIS is responsible for working with Delaware Safety and Homeland Security for the Relief of Disabilities related to firearms. Often, a person will attempt to purchase a firearm either in or out of state and be denied due to a G4 record. Homeland Security or DELJIS will receive a call either from the local law enforcement agency to determine if the person knew they were prohibited, or the individual themselves to determine why they are prohibited. DELJIS staff, working in conjunction with Homeland Security, will attempt to try and determine why the person is in the G4 database. DELJIS is requesting fund to conduct research on current records to make the determination process more efficient in the future. In addition, DELJIS will develop ad-hoc programs that will help to clean up dispositions that can be researched and resolved to close charges/cases listed as pending. DELJIS noticed that the Delaware Department of Justice was entering dispositions of nolle prosequi later (NPL) on charges/cases that would be nolle prosequi after a plea was taken on other charges. Unfortunately, these charges were not closed. DELJIS will research and close these cases/charges with a final disposition, giving a more accurate and complete history of the individual.
Florida ($2,602,000) – The Florida Department of Law Enforcement (FDLE) will use funds for two projects: historical disposition/missing arrest project and the Broward County research project. FDLE is seeking funding for its historical disposition/missing arrest project to receive missing arrest data from local law enforcement agencies and the FBI. Funds will be used for salaries and benefits costs for positions to provide services related to upgrading older records into a more accessible format. Additionally, funding will be used for contracting with consultants who will provide project oversight and work with all 67 clerks of court to complete an analysis of missing information in the Florida computerized criminal history. Funds will also be used for the purchase of two microfilm readers that will provide high-quality digital image files for each record. FDLE is also requesting funding to continue the partnership with the Broward County clerk of court to research historic disposition records. Broward County will continue to support operations personnel staff researching missing dispositions for timely firearm purchase decisions in support of Florida statutes and NICS data requests.
Hawaii ($69,014) – The Hawaii Criminal Justice Data Center’s (HCJDC) will use funds to continue its coordinated effort to identify and close the gaps in the reporting of data to the NICS. The Hawaii Firearms Working Group (NICS Task Force) is tasked with identifying weaknesses in firearms data collection and reporting. The NICS Task Force is comprised of representatives from the County Police Departments along with the State Department of the Attorney General, the Judiciary, and the State Department of Health. Task force members recognize the need for reporting to the NICS and have begun improvements to streamline firearms records management and data sharing. Police Departments (PD) are looking to address paper files and converting to electronic formats. This will improve search capabilities and prepares records for electronic data sharing. The PDs also see the need for case reviews to determine the outcome of a firearm. Case reviews help to identify individuals that have prohibitors such as mental health, domestic abuse, and crimes of violence. Case dispositions are shared with the national systems, and firearms can be returned or destroyed. FBI NICS training team will be conducting an in-person training for point of contact (POC) states to cover topics on POC state responsibilities, background check processes, denials processes and dispositions. Funding will be used for three (3) participants from each of the three (3) neighboring counties (Hawaii, Maui, Kauai) to attend the training session on Oahu.
Louisiana ($1,123,857) – The Louisiana Commission on Law Enforcement (LCLE) in partnership with the Louisiana Supreme Court (LSC), Court Case Management Information Systems (CMIS) Division works to improve the completeness, accuracy and timeliness of criminal dispositions and mental health data received from trial courts for reporting to NICS, the Louisiana Computerized Criminal History (LACCH), and for sharing with III. Funding will support agency, court, or office leveraging technology to ensure that critical missing data elements are identified and captured at the time of arrest, filing, or adjudication. The lack of data can then be communicated to the Clerk and District Attorney (DA) for resolution so that complete data can be transmitted to CMIS daily. Updating case management systems and electronic data exchanges between the Clerk, DA and the arresting agency will improve the completeness, accuracy, and timeliness of information available to NICS and LACCH.
Maryland ($500,000) – The Maryland Department of Public Safety and Correctional Services will use funds to conduct two projects. Project 1: Missing Dispositions and Rap Sheet Linkage Overtime Project. The Department will use funding for overtime hours for CJIS staff to process missing dispositions for over 12,000 arrests without disposition cases. This includes processing criminal history updates on the RAP Sheet and using skilled research to link tracking number and/or a court case number, errors and required biometric data in case files. Project 2: Expungements Overtime Project. The Department will use funding for staff in the Criminal Justice Information Systems Division to process fast growing court-ordered and legislatively mandated expungements. This effort aligns with President Biden Administration’s considerable re-entry and rehabilitation mandates to make every effort to uphold values of redemption, rehabilitation, and fairness.
Missouri ($1,434,988) – The Missouri State Highway Patrol (MSHP) has collaborated with the Missouri Office of Prosecution Services (MOPS) to use funds for several projects. 1) General Counsel Position (MOPS). Funds will be used to continue support the position to provide legal and technical assistance on Missouri's prosecutor case management system (Karpel), and criminal history reporting matters. The position will provide support relating to import of criminal history and charge data from law enforcement and transfer of that data to the courts, reporting the disposition of charges, and accurately recoding and reporting charge code information; 2) IT Specialist Position (MOPS). Funds will be used to support the position to provide IT support to prosecutors’ offices and the Attorney General's Office. The IT Specialist will continue to provide technical assistance to prosecutors’ offices with program and equipment maintenance, addressing interface issues with other state partners such as OSCA and other law enforcement agencies. The position works with the MOPS case management software provider to address program and technical issues and acts as an intermediary between the local prosecutors’ offices and Karpel Solutions. 3) Subsequent Transfer to Court from PbK (MOPS). This project will streamline the process for the transfer of charging document from the prosecutors to the courts. 4) PbK Interface – MoDEx (MOPS). This interface will allow the retrieval of defendant, referred charge data and reports for direct population of those data fields in the prosecutor’s case management system, PbK "Karpel". The Livescan fingerprinting system and MSHP will allow direct imports of citation-based offense data to auto populate fields in PbK "Karpel" and allow the transfer to court with no additional data entry. 5) State Message Switch Database Conversion and Interface Enhancements (MSHSP). This project will assist with database conversion and interface enhancements associated with the Missouri Uniform Law-Enforcement System (MULES). MULES is the statewide message switch application that all Missouri law enforcement agencies use in one form or another to access Missouri criminal justice data such as warrants, protection orders, sex offenders, and criminal history. 6) Biometric Fingerprinting Tablets (MSHP). Funding is requested to purchase biometric fingerprinting tablets as part of a piolet project to capture criminal fingerprints roadside for site and release arrest. Capturing, submitting, and establishing criminal fingerprints on reportable felony and misdemeanor offenses at the time of arrest will greatly improve the criminal history record system.
North Dakota ($1,283,165) – The North Dakota Bureau of Criminal Investigation (BCI) is committed to improving III and NICS data. Currently in the State of North Dakota, our message switch is not National Information Exchange Model (NIEM), Extensible Markup Language (XML) compliant with the FBI’s CJIS Divisions NCIC standard. This is limiting our ability for future enhancements with the NCIC’s new NG3 capabilities to include biometrics and National Data Exchange (N-Dex) information sharing. To address the capability issues, BCI has been working with the North Dakota State Radio (manages the message switch) and Computer Projects of Illinois (CPI, message switch vendor) to implement the National Law Enforcement Telecommunications System (NLETS) forms on the message switch to NIEM/XML formatting. This will enhance and help standardize the communications for law enforcement within and outside of the state for driver’s license, vehicle, non-felony warrants, and concealed weapons notifications. The goals of this grant and proposed activities is to ensure that the message switch is converted to NG3 and NIEM/XML files to be compatible with the FBI CJIS division, states, and territories. This will improve the state’s information sharing through N-Dex and getting the NICS indices NIEM/XML compatible.
Nebraska ($1,375,326) – The Nebraska State Patrol (NSP) will use funding to conduct four projects. A request is being made to continue funding for Nebraska’s NICS Record Improvement Program, which includes a Program Manager position, as well as two Crime Analyst positions. Additional funding is being requested to add a third Crime Analyst position. This program’s goal is to improve the overall reporting of our state’s firearm prohibiting records available nationwide, as well as ensure the integrity, accuracy, and completeness of such records. Funds are also being requested to contract with NIC Nebraska to support the development and maintenance of the Misdemeanor Crime of Domestic Violence (MCDV) and Felony Automated Reporting Systems. These systems help to ensure the completeness, automation, and transmittal of MCDV and felony records reported to the NICS Indices. NSP plans to continue funding support to Nebraska’s Centralized Protection Order Office (CPO) with a Program Manager position, as well as two Crime Analyst positions. The goal of the CPO is to oversee the Protection Order Portal, which facilitates the entry of the state’s protection orders into the NCIC for nationwide availability. Needed maintenance and enhancements are provided by the subrecipient, the Nebraska Crime Commission. Funding will also support the exploration of a similar Warrants Portal to facilitate entries into the NCIC Wanted Persons File. The Douglas County Sheriff’s Office will continue to be a subrecipient to support the entry of their county’s protection order records, which is crucial to the success of the Protection Order Portal.
Nevada ($2,413,463) – The Nevada Department of Public Safety’s (DPS) main goal for their Records Improvement Plan is to match missing dispositions to their corresponding arrests in the Nevada CCH as well as III, correct conversion record data and manually backfill missing state and electronic dispositions into the FBI’s III. Grant funding will be used to continue to fund a contract with a vendor who specializes in doing this work. Additionally, Nevada will continue to fund the Repository's 6 Full-Time Equivalent (FTE) temporary positions to enter dispositions into the state CCH as well as the FBI III, so final case outcomes will be available in both state and national systems. DPS will also fund 4 FTE positions to assist with the workload in the firearms program. The FTE staff in both units will also provide resources and information to the vendor to assist in their disposition gathering efforts. Lastly, Nevada will continue in their outreach and training to criminal justice and law enforcement partners to stress the importance of supplying accurate and timely information to the state’s central repository concerning persons with federally prohibiting mental health adjudications or commitments, final dispositions, court orders, and records of misdemeanor crimes of domestic violence for inclusion in state and federal databases to conduct NICS checks.
New York ($3,664,255) – The New York State Division of Criminal Justice Services (DCJS) will subaward funds to the New York State Department of Health/Health Research Incorporated to develop a secure data quality management portal. The portal will be used to perform the following tasks: 1) monitor data quality, identify the root causes of data issues and work collaboratively with facilities such as, NYS Office of Mental Health and DCJS to resolve them; 2) enhance NICS reporting platform to collect, update, and store NICS data from hospitals more efficiently and ensure compliance with federal and state security policies and standards; 3) improve support for the automation of NICS reporting from hospitals to greatly increase speed of reporting, improve efficiency and data quality, decrease long-term costs, and reduce burden of manual reporting for hospitals; 4) continue to perform audit and compliance activities; 5) continue to serve as a point of contact for FBI NICS outreach; and 6) provide training and end-user support to the hospitals so that they may have continuity in and understand their responsibility for NICS reporting activities.
South Carolina ($567,102) – The South Carolina Law Enforcement Division (SLED) will use funds to continue the progress made with the technical personnel assigned to administering and maintaining the Electronic Document Management System (EDMS) to ensure that all mental health adjudication orders are entered into NICS Indices in the time specified by the S.C. Code of Laws. Additionally, SLED is also requesting funding for enhancements to its current EDMS. SLED is requesting two (2) iaCapture Batch Scan Workstation Licenses and two (2) Annual Support Advantage Maintenance for above iaCapture Licenses. These licenses are to allow the users to access the support documentation that was uploaded to the External SLED NICS Document Portal to be entered into NICS.
Utah ($564,123) – The Utah Commission on Criminal and Juvenile Justice will use funds for the implementation of the Utah Prosecution Case Management System. The eProsecutor is a cloud-based case management system developed by Journal Technologies, Inc. (JTI). eProsecutor is a robust case management program. It tracks every aspect of a criminal case from case initiation through the appellate process. It can generate criminal information, subpoenas, and all other legal documents. Its reporting capabilities are vast. In 2018 UPC entered into a multi-year contract with Journal Technologies for the lease of 150 user licenses. In 2022 UPC leased additional eProsecutor licenses from Journal Technologies, for a total of 216 licenses. Due to demand, we need to lease a total of 300 user licenses. The contract renewed from a multi-year contract to an annual contract in January 2024 and will continue to renew annually until the contract is terminated by either party. Individual eProsecutor licenses are not purchased from Journal Technologies, they are leased. Every user must have a license, not just one per office. This means that every prosecutor and administrative staff member accessing the program must have their own license. eProsecutor is a robust case management program. The project will include the following activities: 1) purchase the renewal lease of 300 eProsecutor user licenses; 2) purchase data storage fees; and 3) support a portion of the salary and benefits of Ron Weight, UPC's IT Director and eProsecutor project manager.
Virginia ($1,320,000) – The Virginia State Police will use funds to purchase 60 livescan units to be installed in courthouses, police departments, and sheriff’s offices throughout the Commonwealth to improve the communication and transfer of criminal arrest booking fingerprints and sex offender information, as well as other common livescan processes such as initiating employment background checks. These livescan units will provide fingerprint-based sex offender registration and offender record updates, including names, addresses, employers, schools, and vehicles. In addition, the livescan units will provide this information in an automated electronic process as part of our integrated Multi-modal Biometrics Identification System and Virginia Sex Offender Management System.
Tulalip Tribes of Washington ($580,460) – Tulalip Tribes of Washington is a federally recognized, sovereign Tribal government located near Seattle, Washington. Prior to participation in the JUST pilot Project in 2015, Tulalip Tribes sent protection orders to the County Court for recognition as a foreign order and then the County Court submitted the orders to the Sheriff’s office for entry. This circuitous methodology for entry of records was sporadic and haphazard, resulting in data that was inconsistently entered and unreliable. Furthermore, Tulalip Tribes had no ability to enter records into the national databases regarding criminal convictions, and other actions; including those that would limit or prohibit someone to purchase or possess firearms. Award funds will be used to continue the Tribe’s plan to increase the process of entering eligible probation records, warrants, and other records. They have noticed that there is a major gap in their harassment orders that are actually "stalking" orders. The Tribe anticipates an increase in criminal prosecution and civil matters involving non-Indians due to the Tribe’s beginning to exercise the Special Tribal Criminal Jurisdiction provisions from 2022. This project will help to expand the capacity to increase data entry and expansion of cases.
