How long can you wait till you get a dismissed crime expunged?
Q. **For a federal government job, you cannot even have had arrests right? I got a Misdemeanor class C dismissed 5 years ago and want to know if I can still get it expunged.. Eventhough it was dismissed, it still shows up on my record as dismissed. I want it to go away completely. I am studying languages right now and wish to be an interpreter for a big agency and don't want this to hold me back. I've worked for the federal government before and I know they perform a very thorough background check.. Would this even matter for a background check like that?

A. A case that was dismissed shouldn't keep you from getting a job with a government agency. However, if it's a job that requires a very thorough background check and Top Secret clearance, then you may get passed up for other candidates with cleaner records.

Will a dismissed misdemeanor affect my ability to go to law school and become a lawyer?
Q. I received a minor consumption of alcohol charge when I was 20 years old. I was put in a diversion program which required me to complete community service, pay a fee, and the prosecution dismissed the case. I am wanting to go to law school. I was wondering if any of this would affect my future of wanting to be a lawyer. There will be no conviction on my record, but the arrest will still be on there. Should I try to get it expunged?
Asked by Michael - Fri Jun 25 13:29:28 2010 - Law & Legal - 4 Answers - Comments

A. You shouldn't bother trying to expunge your record. The bar can still find out and asks you to report expunged crimes anyway. If you get caught lying on your law school application or bar application, even on an expunged crime, and the bar finds out, that'll be a MUCH bigger deal than the crime itself. Alcohol-related crimes, even DUIs, are much less serious than so-called "moral" crimes, like theft or academic dishonesty, like plagiarism or cheating. I can't promise anything, of course, but I would be very surprised if a misdemeanor at the age of 20 is going to affect your law school chances at all. You can call the state bar or the law schools that you're interested in, but all they're going to tell you is to disclose… [cont.]

How can I have my criminal record expunged in AZ, for a class 1 misdemeanor, my case was dismissed?
Q. I was arrested, 2 counts of domestic violence(for trying to save my own life). My case was dismissed, and this is my first offense, so I wanted to know if and how I would be able to have my record expunged?
Asked by Makana - Sun Oct 21 12:41:43 2007 - Law & Ethics - 3 Answers - Comments

A. You have to go to the courthouse and get a petition to expunge/ seal records and fill it out. You might have to pay about $100 in fees for finding the record and processing. (stinks, I know, especially since you really didn't do anything wrong!) They will contact you with a court date, and if all goes well it will be expunged.

A. Someone doing a diligent background check on you would find the plea bargain, and the original charges. Most companies send their background checks out to third party investigator companies, so the best you can hope for is a lazy investigator. - Stuart

A. Well, unless you tell a perspective employer why you were dismissed, it is not likely that he or she will every find out. Most business by policy only verify that a person was in their employ and do not say anything as to why they left. I would if I were you tell the truth without giving details. For example you might put as to why you left...Dismisse d...disagreemen t over conduct.

Asked by celle - Tue Mar 4 19:52:59 2008 - Law & Ethics - 1 Answers - Comments

A. Since the case was dismissed, the only thing remaining is the arrest record. You can contact the Clerk of Courts for that jurisdiction and get the proper forms to submit to the court to expunge the arrest record, pay the filing fee and submit it for consideration. Not being a lawyer, it will be some running around in not knowing the system, but you can do this on your own. Best of luck and I hope you can find this useful

A. It may show up as dismissed or diverted (depending on the disposition of the case). Go to or call your District Court clerk (probably located in the court house) and ask about expunging your record. There may be a small fee, but it would not show up on your record.

Asked by Wiser than Sotomayor - Tue May 26 16:14:30 2009 - Politics - 14 Answers - Comments

A. Sotomayor said about the New Haven Fire Chief's exam that, "Because none of the Blacks passed who took the exam, then there must be something wrong with the exam." Notice Sotomayor never indicated exactly what it was that was 'wrong with the test'. There is a book called "The Peter Principle" that explains that people have reached their final promotion when they are incompetent in the current job they are holding. With 'Affirmative Action' many times people have been promoted once or even many times while being incompetent in their previous jobs. So how can one be expected to pass a job exam for a higher position if they had previously reached their level of incompetency many promotions ago?
