Background checks for jobs Criminal Records, Expungement

It might show up, it might not, if an employer checks.

Police can discover his conviction, should he ever come in contact with them again.

If he's ever prosecuted for a crime, it sure will be seen, and maybe even used against him at trial or sentencing.

Expunction is possible in some cases.

If he's interested, he should speak with a local attorney about costs and what can be done, if anything.

 

All background checks are not created equal. What shows up on any given background check depends on how deep and how thorough a check is run.

 

If adjudication was withheld then he certainly was charged with a crime... it just won't show as a conviction unless he gets in trouble again.
