    Default Dismissed Charge and Application to Law School

    Hello. June 2005, i was granted an ACD (Adjournment Contemplation Dismissal). I am considering of pursuing law,and I know that once i complete the community service and stay out of trouble for 6 months, my case gets dismissed. but i want to know if upon applying for the bar exam and law school, wat do i put on where it says "criminal history"; and if law firms have access to my records?

    thank you

    I doubt it will have any impact on your entry to law school. I know lawyers who got admitted to the bar with worse histories, although some had to attend special ethics classes or perform other obligations before they were admitted.
