To try and make this short as possible just trying to know what's my legal action I can take from here on out.
When I was 18 I stupidly stole money from an employer that screwed me over. Basically it went from a felony down to a misdemeanor charge. Sentenced no jail time but 2 years Probation along with other things outside of a jail. Did so well I was released 11 months later. Wrote the judge and he expunged the record. Still have the paperwork.
Fast forward 22 years now. I live in Wisconsin and up to this point this record has never surfaced on job searches to this recent one. Only time it surfaces is when I go to Canada and I show them the letter from the judge and no issues after that.
This company literally took back their job offer after seeing this charge. I showed them the expungement letter and that didn't matter to them. It's a corporation out of Arkansas with have multiple offices across the US.
From what I gathered in the state of Wisconsin they can't deny me a job based on this charge and they did. I don't feel I should roll over on this because it's got me worrying about other jobs now. Never had an issue before and I've worked for federal/state jobs. Lastly this job had nothing related to the expunged record.
Who would I contact about this?
