Hello,
I was charged iwith retail fraud 3rd degree and got a deferred sentence in november 2009. I was on probation for 6 months, which is about to expire in 20 days. My lawyer assured me that at expiration of the probabtion period I will have no record. I'm also a recent college graduate (radiation therapist) and am applying for hospital positions nationwide. I have a few questions
1) I understand that I can answer 'no' to ever being convicted to a crime, however, will my arrest record show on a background check? Also, will the court record show? (i'm not sure, if the record will show 'dismissed' or what..
2) Can i get my arrest record or court records sealed or expunged in Michigan?
3) Some states apparently require an FBI clearance, showing no record exist with the agency. Will this show up on their records? so is it just convictions of Felonies that they deal with?
