My question involves criminal records for the state of: Texas
I went through the expunction process, landed a job and secured a state licence. I did the fingerprint background check and all is good. Not so fast. After answering questions pertaining to my arrest, not including expunged arrest record, on the employment application I began to question my memory of events as a teen. A few days ago, I stopped by the police station and paid for a copy of my arrest record. There is a possession of marijuana from 1979. I originally thought that happened when I was a minor. It was actually a month after my 17th birthday. Its' not in the county, federal, DPS or the sheriffs department files. I was arrested but for whatever reason that I cant remember didn't get a court date.
On the employment application it clearly states you can be terminated if you omit something that later is discovered. It's too late to reverse that.
Since the county doesn't have the file, I am going to have to lobby the district clerk's office to create a file. I want this case expunged. When the district's clerk creates this file will the FBI and DPS receive notice? I am worried about this.In other word, will a FBI and DPS temporarily create an arrest record during this expunction process? My employer get updates on my background or at least I assume they do. Those agencies(FBI,DPS) don't have the arrest record so I have no plans of serving them during this expunction process.
thanks
