Yes.
If you have a good record, or no record, and the judge thinks you qualify, and are a good risk.
Yes, a misdemeanor conviction can appear on a background check in Missouri, especially if you are on probation for that offense. Probation records are typically accessible to background check agencies and can be included in the report.
Yes, probation is a form of punishment, it doesn't preclude it from being listed on your record. Chances are that you will have this on record for a while.
What is meant by "clean?" Probation(in lieu of jail) IS the sentence for whatever offense you committed. Your criminal record will always show it as a conviction. Simply by completing a term of probation your record is not "cleared" or made "clean."
A misdemeanor in an American court should not be a bother, as long as you are not on probation for it. A common infraction would be if you were a minor in the jurisdiction of the court putting it on your record. If you had a felony, then I would surely be concerned.
The difference between felony and misdemeanor probation is the felony is when a person is sentence to a jail term, but it can be served out of jail. The misdemeanor probation is not given jail time. They serve a probation period.
It depends entirely as to whether you are on misdemeanor probation or felony probation.
No.
USUALLY a misdemeanor BUT, it can be either. It depends on what the original crime and sentence was. Also: What was the violation that caused the VOP? If it was the committing of a crime, THAT would be a separate offense altogether.
Check w/ your probation officer. It will depend on the terms of your probation.
It will be a class c misdemeanor
