I was arrested as a minor and the case was expunged. Will I pass a fingerprint background check?
I was arrested when I was 16. The original charge was a felony but I got it reduced to a misdemeanor through a plea agreement and it was since expunged. I don't recall ever being fingerprinted, so I think I am safe.
Fingerprint background checks can only check cases where you were fingerprinted, correct?
The job is an airline job in case you need to know.
Answers:
A) You were a minor so it would not show up.
B) It was expunged so it really shouldn't show up.
The only thing that may show up, depending on how extensive the check is, is that you were charged but not convicted. Again, however you were a minor and youth records are to disapear when you come of age.
Expunged records are removed from the data base. They can't be found because they no longer exist.
