Does a misdemeanor go on your record?

Answer 1

Very serious! Here's a few things to consider:

* companies can fire you at any moment without any prior notice if they find out that you have a conviction--if you did not include it on your application.

* the law actually allows companies to deny you a job based solely on the reason that you were arrested.

* your criminal record is available to anyone and by that we don't mean only your employer but also your co-workers. * landlords and public housing authorities can deny you housing based solely on your criminal record.

Answer 2

If you went to jail for a misdemeanor, it will be on your criminal record. It will remain there forever, unless you can go to the courthouse where you were charged and ask the clerk for an annulment on the charge in question. However, the process may not be successful, and could still remain on the record.

Answer 3

Yes, a misdemeanor can go on your record for life and can also be prosecuted as a felony. The likelihood of a misdemeanor going on your record depends on * The severity of the crime
* The extent of the injury or damage
* Mitigating or aggravating circumstances
* Prior convictions
* Currently on probation or parole
* Attitude of community and court toward this type of crime
* Whether or not a weapon is used
