    Default Background Check-Job Offer and No Expungement

    My question involves a background check in the State of: GEORGIA

    Over a year ago I turned myself in for simple assault (turned myself in bc the person pressed charges as I was at my mothers funeral & they were trying to cover themselves from being charged with child abuse), The entire court case was up to 6months for a trial once we got to court, I found out I had 2 more charges simple battery and cruelty to children in the 3rd degree which is a charge that the child was in the same room with the argument/fight happened ( my son was at his dad's house, his girlfriend hit my infant repeatedly,so when I picked him up and saw him we had a fight) I was found not guilty on all 3 charges for self defense beyond a reasonable doubt & because I was protecting my son.

    I work in the health care field, I went for an interview with a recruiter, I told her of my background check that it said not guilty and acquittal I even showed her a copy. She sent me to an interview with a dept manager, he sent a job offer back to the recruiter. She was to contact me 3-5 days after she received my background check, but I had to contact her a week later. She says she will submit my background check to her manager and see if he will approve it even though there are no convictions.If I have no convictions and it states it on my background check will I still be considered for this position or no? Under Georgia law and my county says I can not have it expunged(Ive tried twice) because it went to trial, which is something else I don't understand if I was not guilty why is it staying on my record?

    It seems per your post you are currently being "considered" for the position. Whether you get it or not will be up to the employer.
