    Default Re: Will an Expunged Criminal Charge Keep You From Getting a Job as a Police Officer

    I suspect the answer will vary from state to state.

    In California, any person convicted of a felony (or of a crime in another jurisdiction that would be a felony in California) is prohibited from employment as a California peace officer [Government Code §1029(a)]. This prohibition holds even if the conviction was sealed, expunged, or set aside. It may also apply to any convictions that were subsequently reduced to a misdemeanor occurring on or after January 1, 2004.

    That's the law. That doesn't mean an police department can't create hiring guildlines that extend that date further into the past.
