    Offered a Teaching Job, Accepted, but Livescan Looms
    My question involves labor and employment law for the state of: CA

    So I have a misdemeanor charge of public intoxication from 2008 on my record. I am currently student teaching and have been offered a job (I've accepted). However, before it's finalized, I need to get clearance through livescan fingerprinting. I've done this before, and the conviction appeared. I have a certificate of clearance issued from the California Commission on Teacher Credentialing and I disclosed the conviction on my application. I guess I'm just a little worried that the HR person will see the prior and revoke the job offer. I know that no one on here can really know what will happen, but I'm asking for a little speculation here.

    I was honest and upfront about the charge on my application. I have been offered the position. I have accepted the position. I should be good right?

    I go in for the fingerprinting tomorrow...

    Well, you did disclose it and you have passed the state clearance. We can't otherwise predict the future. While a lot of the LC provisions do NOT apply to governmental jobs, you do have a fairly liberal judicial public policy in your favor on the arbitrariness to revoke an offer on information that was already disclosed to them.

    Concur with Ron. The State has already cleared you, THAT is the hurdle I would have been worried about.

    Go have a glass of wine and relax. No sense in borrowing trouble.
