Is this a Criminal Record?

Question

So I'm 16 and its time for a job and I been doing some application and on some of them they asked if I have a Criminal Record, now here is the thing though, I have been to juve detention center but when I went to court they said no charges were press against me and that I could leave.

Do I have a "criminal" record, or what? It was just a domestic dispute and my mom called the cops on me and I was in there from about 4AM-8PM, not that long. This happened about a month ago.

Answer 1

no its not a criminal record.

Answer 2

Well... not technially cuz you didn't get charged, but you still probably have some remark on your name for that....

No. my guess.  

Answer 3

NO! You are in the clear my friend.

Anything that is not officially recorded is not on the record, therefore no criminal record.

Going to court doesnt add to your record UNTIL you are officially charged with an offense, the court is the deciding process of which the decision was you are not a criminal so you are ok.

PS: Be nicer to your mum in future.

Answer 4

No

You only have a criminal record if you get fined or time in jail etc

If charges were dropped thats fine

Answer 5

Absolutely NOT! Your good to go. When they ask that question on an application they want to see if you have been arrested with a felony charge. Not that it matters. It is up to the disscretion of the person who is interviewing you.

I would put NO in your case.

Hope I helped!
