ALL criminal charges of which you were convicted (both Misdemeanor and Felony) ALWAYS stay on your record..., forever. They never go away, unless it was committed when you were a minor. Then the juvenile record is sealed when you reach the age of adulthood in your state.
In Illinois, it is a class A misdemeanor, meaning it carries the potential penalty of up to 364 days in jail and a fine of up to $2500. In some circumstances, as when the defendant has been convicted before or there is great bodily harm, the act may be charged as a class 4 felony with a possible penalty of 3 years in prison and a fine of up to $25,000.00 Please see the related links below for more information.
In most states, misdemeanors remain on your record indefinitely. In order to have your record cleared you must go through a proceeding called an expungement. This will effectively hide the misdemeanor from common background check methods, enabling you to leave it off a resume, unless of course the resume asks about expunged records (in some states asking such a question on an application is prohibited by law, as once your record is expunged, you have in a sense been forgiven by the court system that convicted you, and thus no one else has a right to hold it against you). Keep in mind though that on state and federal applications, and some professional licensing applications you may be required to disclose expunged convictions, regardless of any protective laws.
Any criminal attorney in your area can assist you with the expungement process for a relatively low fee. It is something you can do on your own behalf, but it may take you a considerable amount of time and research to do it correctly, for the small fee it's much easier and quicker to simply pay an attorney to file the paperwork and proceed on your behalf.
Forever if you are an adult, unless you sucessfully request an expungement of your record.
It depends on if it is just a charge or if it was a conviction. Both will stay on your record indefinitely, but a charge will only be visible to police.
You can check an attorney or with your local court system but I'm not sure that Domestic Violence is an expungable offense.
No. At the least, you'd be liable to have an indecent exposure charge against you.
Leave the area immediately and report the incident to someone in authority.
A misdemeanor of public intoxication could prevent a person from getting a job in Tennessee. The choice to overlook the charge depends on the policy of the company.
You would face an indecent exposure charge anywhere in the US, and possibly others, as well.
yes. it depends on whether or not the district attorney or prosecutor is willing to plea you out or not. also bare in mind there are different degrees of all crimes. meaning that your buglary charge can already be a misdemeanor and not necessarily a felony. for example a 4th degree buglary charge is a misdemeanor.
Chapman was acquitted on both charges of terroristic threatening and indecent exposure. The first judge ruled that Chapman did not have the intent to harm the security guard, so the case moved to a different court because the charge was no longer a felony. Chapman was then acquitted on the charge of indecent exposure because the prosecution failed to prove that Chapman was intentionally exposing his genitals to the woman for a reaction. Something about an expert testifying that Chapman indeed had orange juice on his pants.

Depends on the misdemeanor, and whether you were convicted or not.
If you have been convicted, no. A misdemeanor for DV is a disqualifying offense by federal law.
If you were convicted, probably yes. Might depend what the misdemeanor charge was, too.

Depends on whether it's a misdemeanor or felony charge. If it's a felony charge, the answer is going to be no. If it's related to a domestic violence matter, the answer will also be no, whether it's a misdemeanor or felony charge.
