Criminal Records, Expungement simple question

[captpeteh]

Is it legal for a state agency to ask someone if they have ever been arrested?

Please post your question in the appropriate forum.

What is the appropriate form?

 

[cbg]

Not the one on forum rules, I can tell you that.

Without knowing the context, I can only refer you to the criminal law, family law or employment law forums. You know the context of your question, I don't. Pick the appropriate one.

Yes, why wouldn't it be legal? This may be uncovered anyways during a background check. If you were arrested but never charged or convicted with anything, you should see an attorney about an expungement.
