37 Tex. Admin. Code § 27.172 - Definitions
The words and terms in this section, when used in this subchapter, shall have the following meanings, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise.
(1) Department
(DPS) - Texas Department of Public Safety.
(2) FBI - Federal Bureau of Investigation.
(3) Identity History Summary - The
FBI report of all identification, demographic, and event information, criminal
and/or civil, within a Texas and FBI Identity record that may be disseminated
to an authorized recipient. Since a Texas and FBI Identity record may now
contain criminal and/or civil information, the existence of an Identity History
Summary alone does not indicate that any criminal history events exist for that
person.
(4) Request for criminal
history record information - The processing and entry of a person's complete
set of fingerprints in the department's tenprint database and the comparison of
those prints to the department's latent print database and if authorized the
entry into FBI's tenprint and comparison to the FBI's latent print database.
(5) Subscription - The
subscription at the department, the FBI or both.
(6) Subscription term - A lifetime
subscription to a person.
(7)
Triggering event - Events that can trigger an update to an Identity History
Summary. Examples include arrests, dispositions, and sex offender registry.
(8) Validation - A process whereby
the subscriber reviews a subscription to determine whether they are still
authorized to receive criminal history record information on that individual
and updates the subscription accordingly. Validations are required on a yearly
basis.
