Code 10-29 handles which check?

• A. Criminal Check
• B. Permit Check
• C. Location
• D. WALES- Criminal Status

Answer: (A)

Code 10-29 is used to perform a criminal history check. When a 10-29 is requested, you’re asking dispatch or the system to pull up the subject’s criminal status, including whether they are wanted or have outstanding warrants, from NCIC or local records. This information helps inform officer safety and decision-making during a stop or encounter. It’s not about verifying permits, it isn’t a general location inquiry, and the WALES- Criminal Status option refers to a different category, not the standard use of 10-29.
