    My question is he now in 58 but 33 years ago in a different state he was incarcerated for 9 months. Will this show up?
    In a criminal background check? Yes.

    Have you EVER been convicted in any court of the United States of a crime, sentenced to imprisonment for a term exceeding 1 year for that crime, and incarcerated as a result of that sentence for not less than 1 year? (Include all qualifying convictions in Federal, state, local, or military court, even if previously listed on this form)
    Without rehashing the prior discussion, it is possible to be sentenced to a year or more of incarceration and yet still spend less than a year incarcerated. Depending upon the case and the circumstances, a defendant might be sentenced to a year of incarceration with three months suspended, might be sentenced to a year of incarceration but released early for 'good time' or due to overcrowding.... It is necessary to investigate the terms of the original sentence.

    Have you EVER been charged with any felony offense?
    For a first offender to get nine months of incarceration for an office, there's a good chance that the original charge was a felony, even if we assume that the charge was reduced to a misdemeanor as part of a plea bargain. That, also, is something he will have to verify.
