Any criminal arrest will ALWAYS remain on your record.
In New York, your arrest stays on your record forever. However, if you get a dismissal, A.C.D., acquittal after trial, or plead guilty to a violation, your record may be sealed. Your fingerprints and photos will be kept in the criminal justice computers. Potential employers generally won't have access to your fingerprint record or arrest record if your information is sealed.
Forever. Never leaves you.
Just because the State declined to prosecute the charge does not mean the record of your arrest goes away. Unless you take legal action to have it expunged, the record of your arrest will always exist.
If you were over 18 years of age when it occurred, the record of your arrest and charge AND the Not Guilty verdict of the trial will be a permanent record.
If you are referring to a dismissal of a criminal charge - the record of your arrest and the charge will always appear on your criminal history record AND ALSO the fact that the charge was dismissed.
It is never removed from your record. If you do not pay the ticket your license will be suspended and a warrant issued for your arrest.
