I have recently found that there is a warrant for my arrest. It is something that happened two years ago, that I thougt was resolved. Well because me not knowing a civil and criminal case was totally different, I thought my nightmare was over when the civil case had been dismissed.
I have found in this mess, that the law seems to only apply to those of significant wealth and not of people who REALLY are innocent. I have since hired an attorney, which I will go into station and face whatever it is...
At the same time, I a mother of kids and I work a job who is being bought by another company. That company will be doing a background search. I was told that arrest may show up but they can not disclose it. That they can only disclose convictions. I was thinking of taking a leave of absence to avoid it until it is cleared up. YOu see if I loose my job, I loose the only way I take of my kids.
I would appreciate any real assistance from anyone on this matter.

Look, I assume that everyone who answers will think I am guilty of something, which I am not. It seems as though I was involved in something, I had no idea I was. My attorney think the authorities want information from me, which I will be happy to provide. So please don't judge me. My questions was simple. I don't think the smart and nasty comments are really helpful at all.
What I wanted to know, are arrest disclosed to potential employers?
I called and background search company and they said it was illegal to disclose to an employer. Because you are not guilty of anything. But I wanted to make sure. Again, I have never committed a crime in my life and will never, I would never jeopordize my kids, they are way to important to me. So if you would answer that, it would most help me.

I think so, if you got charged...
And yes, warrants will show up on a crim. background check. Most services that do them for companies check many many sources, so they won't miss much, especially things like outstanding warrants...
Don't worry about it, I was freaking out on YA! awhile ago about lying that I'd had no previous work experience and thinking the check would get me disqualified for it... At least you can spell and seem like you want to do the right thing, and it seems you're in quite a mess that may or may not be your fault. Good luck!

Well when you were arrested did the police station have a computer and did they put in your name and all that kind of personal information if they did then it will show up on your criminal check as they do have that information on file i suggest that (no offence) but you should start looking for another job.

It really depends on the type of background check, it depends on what resources they use and what court system they go through. Your best bet is to get the warrant cleared.

Yes.
It wouldn't be much of a criminal background check if it didn't show warrants and arrests, now would it?
