Can you join the military even though you were charged with a felony but never convicted and the outcome was a dismissal?

Yes normally you can you may need a waiver from the commanding officer. Look closely at the dismissal if the charge was dismissed provided you have to do something like stay out of trouble for a year. Then the military looks at that a guilty charge because there were conditions on the dismissal. The best thing to do is call a recruiter all branches of the military treat charges slightly different. Restriction on enlistments do change from month to month.

∙ 14y agoIf you were charged with the felony but not adjudicated (convicted or acquited), then you do not have a felony record. With no felony on your record, the dismissed charge will not impede your recruitment.

∙ 13y agoThis is a question that can only be answered by your military recruiter. They will conduct a background check of your record and pass on the information to their recruiting branch superiors who will make a determination if they can waive your charge for enlistment purposes.
I am not a recruiter but I am in the US AF Reserves. I started my recruitment process while I still had a felony charge of "False Imprisonment" going through court. That delayed my entry, but all charges were eventually dropped by the state. I had to go through an extra process of having an interview and giving all information about the incident but I was eventually allowed to join. All branches and recruiter might have different rules or lengths they are willing to through to get you in. I am currently trying to get this charge expunged from my records all together. Hope this helped with your question. Good luck!

If a criminal case has been dismissed but the outcome of that not hearing the case causes medical difficulties can a new case based on the dismissal be pursued?
It all depends on HOW it was 'dismissed.' There are two types of 'dismissals.' Dismissal WITH prejudice, means that the same case can NOT be brought against you again. Dismissal WITHOUTprejudice means that the prosecution CAN file the same charges again at a later time.
