I have two arresst record and I called the BON today

Published

i have two arrest record and they are all dismissed and sealed. Actually it is just for one matter.

I was a family abused women when i first came to the States. My ex husband abused me so i called the 911. he hated me doing that so he tried all means to set me up. I first went to the court to have a order of protection .He begged me to drop it and later I dropped it. But later he tried to call the 911 during one argument with me and get a staying away order of protection against me. I was thrown out of the home that night before I know what happend.

I had no money ,no friends, no family in the U.S then so i had to come back to the home and when i knock on the door, he called the police to arrest me, that is the first time. and the judge released me and dismissed the case if it is not happening again within half a year.

later, however, he faked called the police again and for the same reason, i was arrested again for violating the order of protection. and again the case was dismissed by ACD dismissaled and it is sealed since may, 2010.

i called the BON where i potentially want to go for nursing progaram and get the license, it is in middle U.S.. the BON told me that it will not prevent me from getting my license in that state. But i have to prepare the certified copy of court disposition and they will look into each applicant case by case.

Do you guys feel i would be in good shape when it comes to licensing issue in the future? I felt more assured after calling the BON and they are very nice.

But when i asked will this effect my future employer, they said they are not quite sure and i need to ask empolyer instead. Do you guys have any experience if this will harm my future employment?

I was new to this country and english was poor then. Most importantly i was abused by my ex husband. But right now i am getting better and better, not only because i stayed away from that dangerous man ,but also because i am gaining more confidence and working hard in this country towards my goal. I am very well behavierd and do not even have a speeding ticket beyond that messed up happed with my previous marraige.

These are questions we just can't answer. The only advice we can provide is to consult an administrative law attorney.

YES, thank you for your quick response. i am just posting here so that other memebers can see and possibly offer some of their advices.

BTW, do you know what kind of lawyer i should find and where i should find them ?

I think i will be okay for applying my RN license in the future, becuase the BON in that state already told me this case won't prevent me from getting licensed in that state.
