FAQ
In addition, a background check may show pending criminal charges and misdemeanor or felony convictions, with a look-back period of seven years. However, non-convictions aren't reported, such as non-pending arrests, charges, or indictments that did not lead to a conviction.
Misdemeanor arrests should be sealed after 1 year if there are no charges, and felony arrests should be sealed after 3 years if there are no charges. Cases that get dismissed should be cleared immediately. Convictions of cases where you are granted probation should be cleared once the case closes.

Financial Issues: Significant debt, bankruptcy, or a history of financial irresponsibility can raise concerns about an individual's reliability and trustworthiness.
The DOJ is required by law to record summary arrest, detention, disposition, and personal identification information when submitted by a law enforcement agency or court of this state.
