it depends! there are multiple factors that come into play, including: how long ago? what type of misdemeanor?if you were 18 or older? what have you done since.... have you gotten into more trouble since?and what state you want to be come a correctional officer in?
your best bet is to look at the requirements your state has and dis-qualifiers it has. then also maybe talk to someone that works for the place you want to work for.....i.e. a person that works on the hiring process.usually department have no problem having someone talk to you about the process and application.
Added: The above is good advice - but don't forget - DO NOT LIE or "forget" to include your past convictions on your application - government agencies DO have the ability to look at even expunged records.
I am not for sure, seek the advice from an local attorney in your area and get an expungement. Good luck!
Assault and Battery on a Police Officer is a serious criminal offense. There is a common misconception about Assault, and I'll explain this here. Assault is not the unlawful touching of another person, that is Battery. Assault is to provoke fear in someone that you may batter them (hit them). If you've been charged with Assault & Battery on a Police officer, it would be suggest that you seek legal counsel to protect your rights.
Possibly assault and battery.
Depending on the circumstances and previous convictions, battery can be both a misdemeanor and a felony. Battery on a Police Officer is most always a felony. Simple Battery, is generally a high grade misdemeanor. If you've been convicted of battery once before, it could be upgraded to a low class felony. Check your states' statues regarding Battery or Assault (though they are technically different, some states fade the meaning).
The prefix of "correctional officer" is "correctional."
In Illinois a person is assaulted when he is put in reasonable apprehension of receiving a battery. A Battery is when someone causes bodily harm or makes physical contact of an insulting or provoking nature. So, if you were to swing at the police officer and miss, you'd be charged with assault. If you made contact, you'd be charged with battery. Assault is a class 4 felony punishable by 1-3 years in prison and/or a $25k fine. Battery is a class 2 felony and is punishable by 3-7 years in prison and/or a $25k fine.

In Maryland, Assault in the Second Degree is a misdemeanor, unless the victim is a police officer or parole officer engaged in formal duties and the perpetrator knows they are law enforcement, in which case it is elevated to a felony.This law is condified under the Annotated Code of Maryland, Criminal Law article, § 3-203.
Yes, 'assault' does not necessarily mean you touched someone. The term for uninvited physical contact is 'battery'. Assault covers the threat and intent of violence, battery is the harmful contact, the act itself.Threatening a police officer with a punch to the face is assault, as is spitting at him. Punching him, or spitting on him, is battery (and may be assault too).Assault is commonly misunderstood to mean physical contact but the above is true as a legal definition in many countries, including England and most of the US, but differs a little in Scotland. That means you can indeed be found guilty of assaulting a police officer - if you touched him, you'd have been charged with battery.
