Background Checks, Applications, and Mugshots | Austin Criminal Defense Lawyer

Austin Defense Attorney Charlie Roadman discusses various aspects of background checks, mugshots, and legal actions related to criminal records. Here's a summary:

Background Checks: They show all resolved cases, including convictions, deferred adjudications, and dismissals. Pending cases may also appear if they are listed on public websites.

Record Removal: Cases don't disappear over time, except for some juvenile cases. To remove a dismissed case from the record, one must take legal action, such as expunction or filing for non-disclosure for certain deferred adjudication cases.

Employment and Criminal History: Different laws and company policies determine if and how a criminal case can impact employment. In Texas, employers can refuse to hire based on criminal history. The extent of information revealed depends on the type of background check conducted, ranging from comprehensive law enforcement checks to more limited commercial checks and individual searches.
