Hello everyone,
Everything is pretty much in the title except my state (which is North Carolina). Iam 19 years of age now but when I was 17 I stoled $114 worth of video games, I hired a lawyer who got me into the First Offenders programs. Completed this program and the charge was dismissed. After my last court appearance I remember signing expungement papers , however, recently I called my lawyer's office and his clerk said my charge is still on file but as dismissed.. My job interview is tomorrow.. -sighs- what are my chances? slim to none?.. I figured no employer wants to hire someone who have shoplifted in their past.Should I explain to the employer what happened if they ask? I am going to be honest and straight forward. Its so depressing. I've been working to work at this place for years, and now the opportunity is here! but this charge is preventing me.
