What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Maryland
I am applying for a job where a security clearance is involved. I have currently have a top secret however the job that I am applying for is still doing a background check. One of the questions on the application asked if I was ever arrested due to anything alcohol related. I did receive a DUI over a year ago (I fell asleep at a traffic light 1/4 mile from my house) The cops woke me up, did a sobriety test, took me down to a detention center where I blew for a DUI. I filled out paper work and was let go. It took about an hour. In court I received PBJ. So I'm not sure if I was actually arrested or detained. Due to the fact that I was never booked/fingerprinted and was let go after a short period of time, is it ok that I answered no to the arrest question? Thank you.
