At Arraignment.
Criminal pleas refer to a defendant's formal response to criminal charges, such as pleading guilty, not guilty, or no contest. Motions are formal requests made to the court by either party in a legal case, seeking a specific ruling or order, such as suppressing evidence or dismissing charges. Together, pleas and motions are integral components of the criminal justice process, impacting the direction and outcome of a case.

It would depend on whether it is a criminal or civil case. In California it would be either one year for criminal and two years for a civil case.
In a civil case they would be the plaintiff.In a criminal case they would be the prosecution (the Crown).In an appeal they would be the appellate.
If they are entered into the criminal justice computer system they will show up on a background check.
