What is the name of your state? Austin Texas
Non extraditable warrant for harassment that was showing up on the background check when I applied and got accepted for this one job, which is now on hold for me to dispute with the background company.
Going back a bit, it started about 2 years ago when my mom went into a hospital for a leg infection, and she was put near COVID patients and died a week later. I let my brother and two sisters know, and after a year, I finally realized I would like to go into the healthcare field to help people. About a year ago, at that time, I was searching for a college to do training while every Sunday attending church. I also met a lady about 30 years old online, and we got involved. Long story short, I tried to help her from the trouble she was getting into, but cops got involved when I told her caseworker, who told the lady I was seeing at the time, and she got mad and lied that I was harassing her when I was not and even have text messages to show that she said to come see her. Now, later down the time line, I am driving through Utah and get pulled over for speeding a little over the limit. The copy says that there is a warrant, but it is only in Texas, so let's go on my way. Calling over to Texas in Austin, they say it is a minor warrant and give me the cop's number to call and see if he could remove the warrant, but every time I tried calling, he would never answer or respond back. I finally got accepted into medical school. At the same time, when I moved to a new state, I hired an attorney who wanted a lot of money but said I could pay like $500 a month and 1k down as well could skip next month's payment, so I gave him my last 1k but never heard back for 3 months while in med school. By the third or fourth month, they sent me an email saying I am 2K past due, and that was the same time I had applied at a hospital to find out that the background check is marked as "Consider," and they say it says harassment charge, sent me a pre-adverse action notice, and then asked me to dispute it if it was incorrect. I advised my attorney that I could file an attorney grievance and would like my money back, but they said that's all been spent and they needed more money to do anything as this case would need to be closed and later expunged. They could have at least called the officer on my behalf to try and settle this because, without a job, it's hard to pay the attorney, and they want near 10k.
Please, any advice out there? Is there a way to get this removed quickly enough to still get the job at the hospital in order to help people?
