Legal Question in Criminal Law in Pennsylvania
Act 33/34 and FBI Clearances
Last year I was arrest for shoplifting. It was my first offense and it was charged as--name removed--summary offense, I was given an ARD and paid all fines and completed my required classes. My question is will this summary offense prevent me for obtaining Act 33/34 and FBI Clearances? I really need them for--name removed--potential intership and I was just wondering would this offense having any bearing on me obtaining clearences? Also I was fingerprinted and photographed at the time of my arrest.

It should not. However, the arrest will continue to appear on your FBI record, despite getting ARD, until you have it expunged from your record. You should hire an attorney do this ASAP.
