how would an obstruction charge look on your record?
451414
You're asking a complex question\n\nObstruction, as in Martha Stewart interfering with an investigation?\n\nLying to an officer, as in making a statement after waiving Miranda Rights, signing a Crime Report?\n\nOfficers from your State jurisdiction, or officers from Federal jurisdiction?\n\nThe truth coming out, as in being prosecuted?  Yes, whether or not you are found guilty...A prosecution by, say, a DA will appear on your record and not subject to expungement\n\nA good job, as in for Dept of Defense? not if you need a security clearance\n\nA good job, as in confiction of a felony?  quite likely a company still asks these questions about whether you've had conviction of a felony\n\nA good job, as in a misdemeanor? don't volunteer information unless it is required on the job application

there is a chance, but you messed up pretty bad. i got a pardon for theft. and it was a pretty big pardon also, it took them awhile to decide. so you might have a chance.

Doesn't sound like it was a misdemeanor. There are all sorts of minor violations which do not become part of any criminal / permanent / public records. If all you got was a ticket, then this is probably not something still on your record.

definitely clean your record first.  anything in warrant status will hurt you.. cuz... you can't be criminal and law enforcement simultaneously.  College, not necessarily. Junior college should be enough. And don't smoke anything (u know)....

there shouldn't be a charge on your record, only a conviction.  Were you convicted/plaed guilty, etc..? How did you get convicted?  Would there be reason for a mistrial?  If you did it, or were found guilty of it, you're screwed.  But, you should have a lawyer check out the case, and give you an opinion.  FYI, my friend had a case following from when he was a juvenile.  He's now 30, and it shows up on every background check.  He thinks there's no way out of it, since they don't expunge a minor's files

In my state, you can look up your circuit clerk website for the county you live in.  There is information on there listing traffic violations, which would include DUIs.

No - this is where he goes into open court, and is formally told what he is being charged with.\nThey will ask him if he understands the charges, and if he has a lawyer. If he doesn't have a lawyer, they will appoint a public defender, and give him an appointment with that public defender.\nIf he gets an appointment with a public defender and doesn't keep  it, he will be found in contempt of court.

Your friend will probably get a fine for this violation.  He will go through a few court dates.  The arraignment, he is advised of his charges.  The initial appearance, he enters a plea (guilty, not guilty, no contest).  If no contest or guilty, he basically has plead guilty and explains to the judge.  If not guilty, he will then be set for a pre-trial conference.  The prosecutor offers a plea deal.  If not accepted, you go to trial.  The court determines the sentence.  Most likely fine.

There is no way to view charges filed. Courts will not publish to public record until adjudication has been completed.\n\nCloset you will get is if it is covered by local media. You may get a hint of what has happened. If it was not a major case you will either have to appear in person or wait until the case has been heard.

You become AWOL and they look for you. Then you face court marshal and dishonorable discharge.  All bad for your record.  It is better to work out the problems with your senior officers.  Worst case is you could serve time in a military jail - not a cool place to be.

If you were convicted, it will show up.

Most likely there are some misdemeanors that will disqualify you but  no most. Just be honest when questioned about them especially if they are in your past.

Don't worry, if you didn't do anything you won't be charged with anything. Some people are questioned sometimes, but that's just to see if a charge is viable. I costs a lot of money and takes a lot of paperwork to charge somebody, so officers don't lay charges casually.

If they have been tried and sentenced, that will not help much.  If not, then talk to the District Attorney's office about whether they would continue the case if you did not press charges.  They may or may not want to pursue it without your testimony, but you can ask.

of course it would affect your case..it can give you a good chance not to be convicted, right? unles it's a typographical error ;), kidding aside...such concern is critical and having a wrong last name on paperwork is a big matter to consider!

since they check your record, you would be arrested in most cases.

I know from reviewing people's criminal records as part of my job...sometimes you get the charge and the conviction, because often what the person was charged with is different than what they were convicted of.  So, it is possible that the charge will show up on your criminal records with "pending" as the disposition or something like that.  It is also possible that because the charge is recent, it hasn't "caught up" with you yet, so you might get lucky.  Your best bet is to notify your employer that the charge might show up just so that you look like you are trying to be honest.
