Q: case was dismissed after completing AR. On my paperwork it says "This Case is a Non- Disclosable Dismissal" Explain?
had a case dismissed 12/2021 after completing AR. I had requested my disposition from the Clerk's Office and on the document it says *This case is a Non-Disclosable Dismissal* & This case was disposed of on 12/2021. What Does a Non Disclosable Dismissal mean?
A: A "Non-Disclosable Dismissal" generally means that the record of the case will not be disclosed to the public or appear on most background checks. It is a way to protect your privacy and prevent the case from negatively impacting your reputation or employment prospects. However, it is important to note that there may be exceptions, such as certain types of background checks conducted by government agencies or law enforcement.
