And signing any bond is considered an arrest. I did not go to the police department, and do I have an arrest record , and SuperVision 4 month done Is a misdemeanor or a petty crime counted even after the violation has been reduced and will it appear in a background check?
A: This will not appear on a background check if you were given Court Supervision and the ticket was reduced to a Petty Offense. The Supervision will show up on your driving record on the Supervision page and the case will still show up in the Circuit Court Clerk's system. You really should discuss this with your attorney if you have any further questions.
