Being charged with felon in possession of a firearm for a firearm I knew nothing about in a car that’s not mine | Aug 27, 2026 | Sourced from Reddit
Location: California. So about 2 months ago now i was using my buddies vehicle who has a concealed carry license. The car is in his name because it belongs to him. The firearm was in a hidden safe in the bottom of the center console. I guess it was a false bottom. The safe had a biometric fingerprint type thing to gain access to the items inside as well as a PIN code, which I didn’t/don't know. So when I got pulled over it was for window tints. I am searchable because I’m on PRCS for felon in possession of a firearm, which I understand looks bad in this scenario. However it is what it is. I can’t change the past and for this charge right here I am an innocent man in the sense that it's not my firearm and I had no knowledge of the thing being in the car. So when they searched the vehicle they did a real thorough search and after like an hour of sitting in the cop car they came to me and asked me what the code was for the safe. I was confused at first and when they made it clear what they were asking, I told them I don’t know anything about any safe anywhere. So they explain that on the safe, which is hidden at the bottom of the center console, theres a biometric unlock and a keypad to gain access, as well as a physical key, which I…
Dismissing sales personnel after 90 day probationary period ends. Company not paying bonuses / commissions for customer contracts signed during 90 days. | Aug 27, 2026 | Sourced from Reddit
Recently let go after 90 day probationary completed, outside salaried sales position with additional money to be paid for securing signed contracts from new customers. Company committed to pay a % of the sales upon completion of the work at these locations Jobs at new locations can take weeks or months to complete and for the all the costs to reconciled before money is paid out to sales personnel. Typically not a problem if your going to stay and be hired on. It seems that predatory hiring and firing of sales staff is not unusual for this company and have located several others who were also let go after landing contracts and upon completion of their probationary period. No reason given for dismissal No mention of additional money owed ? Has this company found a loophole in the system whereby they are able to keep the commissions for jobs? How are these moneys reported and accounted for ? Is the money due kept by the owner? At some point they had to account for the expenditures of each of these jobs is the money used to offset the labor cost for probationary employees ?. is this something I should pursue ? is it a class action suit because of additional persons ? with whom should I speak ?

Misdemeanor charges dismissed, changed to administrative citation. Does it still show up as an arrest during background checks? | Aug 2, 2026 | Sourced from Reddit
Location: California Hi! I was recently arrested and charged with a misdemeanor for unlawful assembly. I recently got a notice from the City Police dept. saying it was dismissed and replaced with an Administrative Citation, which is apparently a lower-level offense like an infraction -- civil, not criminal. Only thing to do is pay a fine. My question is, is this something I still need to get expunged? Like will an arrest still show up on a background check for private company employers? Not sure how downgraded charges work. I was basically detained, never fingerprinted/mugshot etc. but the original ticket was for a misdemeanor. I'd appreciate any help, thanks!
This may be a long shot but do any petty theft lawyers use Reddit? ‍♀️ | Jul 22, 2026 | Sourced from Reddit
I fucked up I made a mistake was caught concealing merchandise and was given a ticket for trespassing and concealing items totaling $70. However i tried to tell the officer and worker that i was not trespassing, that i had gotten the trespass notice from a different Target store and was told i was banned for a year but from that specific location. Now im being told it was a ban for the entire county indefinitely and that’s why i was trespassed…. i had never been informed this or had heard this before or else I never would have gone there to begin with. I have a court date now it’s currently a misdemeanor but im worried they will pull up past footage of me. Truthfully i have taken items here and there in the past but had never been cited or trespassed until now. This incident happened 2 months ago im in a different place now and working to get my dermatology license but am terrified i could potentially be facing a felony when my court date happens next month. Any suggestions advice? Hope for the worst? Throw in the towel? Pls Help location: Southern California
