Yes. If you are convicted of a crime after age 18, it will be on your public record forever. The good news is that many criminal background checks that employers run only look for certain crimes, so something like 'jaywalking' isn't going to be reported in the check and your employer won't know about it.

Yes. The arrest will still appear there along with the notation indicating the case was "dropped" (or "dismissed" or "whatever")

Yes. Misdemeanors are criminal offenses, and therefore appear on a criminal background check.

I have a friend who received a misdemeanor in a case about 6-7 years ago that was dismissed, but he had court fines to pay and it is still showing up on his record. How long does this contiue to show up on his record for employment and other issues? He was wrongly accused of disaplening(Spell check) his child and the child reported him doing something more than what really happened, but the COPS said otherwise so it all turned on him and he got a misdemeanor charge against him and it was overturned by not only the legal courts, but the family courts.

Removing a misdemeanor off your record in Washington state?

Present a petition/motion to the court requesting, and giving good reason, why your record should be 'expunged.' It can only be done after the successful completion of your sentence and, if it is even granted, it does not mean you were 'pardoned.' Altho the public may not have access to it, your record will still be available to law enforcement and the courts.
