No. The circumstances of your arrest and the reports and records of it still exist. The prosecutor simply made the decision, for whatever reason, not to prosecute the charge against you.

Will an arrest with dismissed disposition show on background check?

Generally, an arrest with a dismissed disposition may still appear on a background check, as arrest records are usually considered public information. However, individuals can often petition to have such records expunged or sealed, depending on the laws in their jurisdiction. It's best to consult with a legal professional for guidance on how to handle such situations.

Will dismissed expunged cases that did not result in a conviction still show on a FBI check?

If you were arrested, it will show. If you were arrested multiple times, it will show each time you were arrested and what you were arrested for but if you were acquitted of the charges then it will state that in the records.Clarification: Just because a charge was "dismissed" or "Nolle Prossed" does not mean it is automatically expuinged from your record. The record of your arrest will still exist as well as the record of the court action (i.e.: dismissed or nolle'd).You must file a formal request for expungment to have these records concealed,
