Living in Virginia.
Over 20 year ago I was arrested while with a firend in UPSTATE NY. He pulled over, and ran out to siphon gas. Being a guest in the area, with no car, I remained behind, the owners came out and found me, not him. I was arrested, out on bail. WHne appeared as requested, the judge asked if I had a lawyer, I said no. Judge said, get one and reappear when requested.
I never got another communication from the court, clerk, or judge.
A recent employment backround check produced a POSSIBLE record in NY. The cour was the very same courthouse.
Has this job application opened a can of worms? What law applies here? From the job perspective, I did not lie, as I was NEVER convicted, and it was aover 7 years ago.
Any advice would be great!
Warm Regards,
Out of Gas
