Hang on, I have to ask this right here — Doesn’t that mean his arrest would still be seen? I’m not calling you wrong, but he did say that he WAS arrested and taken into the station because he did a hit and run (from what I gather) and had his fingerprints taken along with a photo.

I think he’s asking if that arrest will still show up when they do the fingerprint test - Looking it up, it says MACHS will reference any, and all, arrest records. He’s just asking if the fact that he didn’t get charged and it never went to court or arraignment will show why he was arrested, or if it will show the arrest at all.

Again, not calling you wrong. I’m just asking we’re on the same page about his question.
He doesn't have a conviction for a misdemeanor or felony. The charges were apparently dismissed. Now the arrest record might show up, but if that is the case, the fact that the charges were dismissed should also show up.
