Can a Ex-offender get a job with Pre-trial Intervention?
If I do pre-trial
intervention and then all my record gets sealed once I complete the
courses, what do I have to say in an interview when they ask about anything
on my criminal record they should know about?

Hello Kayla,
Pre-trial intervention is usually offered to first time offenders whose
offenses are not that bad. In different states it may have different names such as, Deferred Adjudication,
Deferred Judgement or Deferred Sentence. There are terms associated with pre-trial intervention, usually a fine and probation. In most cases when the terms of pre-tral intervention are met, the charges are essentially dropped. Because the charges were dropped, there is no conviction. Record of this can only be seen by the court system, law enforcement and certain government agencies. There will always be a record of the initial charge but it will show as dropped. With pre-trial intervention, there is an initial plea of guilty. It is my understanding, at the end of the probationary period, if you have complied with all the conditions of probation and the fine is paid, the guilty plea is considered withdrawn, the case is dismissed and no conviction enters. This is because a conviction is not final until there has been both a guilty plea or finding of guilt and the imposition of sentence. Since sentencing does not occur before the end of the probationary term, there is no conviction. Have you been convicted of a crime? The answer is "no". This is not legal advice. If you want to get the details of your case, contact the probation officer assigned to you.
Many
ex-offenders
and felons looking for jobs apply for expungement which means
that you can apply to have your charge hidden from public view. Both the
charge and the
pre-trial intervention will always be visible to the court
system, law enforcement and government agencies. This may not be an option for you since most employers are only concerned with convictions
I often suggest to
ex-offenders and
felons looking for a
job to seek assistance at their local legal aid office.
I hope this helps.
