If i am getting a background check done, and i just got bailed out from a local police station but i was charged with felonies(which will most likely be dropped) will it show up on the background check even if i havent even had my first courtdate?
i think i was only being attained right? if i havent been convicted?
i most likely will get all the charges dropped.

If you haven't been convicted, it will not be on your record. It is an illegal question for them to ask "Have you ever been arrested?" The only way they can ask is "Have you ever been convicted of a crime?" And you haven't.

Hi,
If you haven't got a conviction your reputation should still be safe. The only exception would be if the background check was being done because you were applying for a position within the police service, or other high-security company.
If the charges are eventually dropped you should have no further cause to worry about any background check.
Good Luck

Yes, it will always be there...even if the charges are dropped. The only way you could get it expunged (then there are not guarantees it will 'never' show up is if does not deal with rape, incest or any bodily evils. Felonies are different...and after 7 years you can file for the expungement.
