Question Hello,
I live in Louisiana, and I work for a nationwide retail company. I've been working for them for a year and half now, and when I got hired on the application asked "Have you been convicted of a Felony in the past 7 years?" and I answered no because I haven't. I'm not sure if they did a background check when hired but they just recently did one and I had a misdeamenor come back and they are trying to fire me over it, they said if I can provide documentation that it's getting expunged then I can keep my job. The misdeameanor also happened 4 years ago and is the only thing on my record. The thing is that they want it done in 7 days and I can't get it done in that time and also when sentenced the judge didn't state it under the articly 894,(which means it can be expunged), so therefore I would have to go in front of the judge and get re-sentenced to try and get it under that article and then go through the expungement process, from what I understand. Is this correct or is there any other way that I can go about this? I know a judge but not that well at all and will talk to him tomorrow, what should I try and do to keep my job???
Answer Michael:
I understand your plight. I dont understand why they are making an issue of this after one year. Why are they threatening to terminate you? For lying on your application? or what??? Who is actually making this threat? at what level? If your relationships (working) with store management are good and the problem is at a different level, you might try speaking with that level. Since I dont know what your earlier legal problem was I cannot comment on that, and not being a lawyer have no clue on the legal process.
Let me know the answers to my questions and I will try to help.
Jim
