Hi guys,
First I want to say thank you in advance for helping me out with this question.
If a person got arrested for petty theft for stealing a small item like around $20, signed some papers with the stores which is not what I'm concerned about. Then went to the police station for fingerprinting and photos booking. Was released without bail since it was his first offense (no priors). Then got a good lawyer then the DA decided to not file any charges against him. Never had to go to court or paid any fines. Simply just an arrest-only record, no court files.
My question is can commercial background checks that are offered on the internet see that arrest. I know law enforcement or public companies like health care and such will be able to find the arrest record, but can a private company see that arrest record?
Thanks again for all the helps
