    Default How Long Before a Shoplifting Arrest Shows Up On Your Record

    My question involves criminal law for the state of: WA

    I was caught shoplifting merchandise worth around 400 dollars from a macys store two days ago . I am a senior in college and I have just received a job offer for a position that i intend to accept next week. when HR checks my background...will they see this on my record? when i was apprehended by the store's security, the police was not called but they did make a copy of my drivers license and told me to expect to get a summons to appear in court.

    I guess my questions are:

    how long before this incident shows up on my record? did i get "charged" when they took my info at the store? or is it when the court enters a judgement against me when i appear infront of a judge?

    will anything show on my record between now and when the judgement is entered?

    It's going to depend upon how they perform the background check, and when they perform it. Sorry, we can't promise you they won't find out. But yes, there will be something on your record even before final judgment.
