<p>So my brother mark pulled a dumb stunt and landed a misdemeanor</p>
<p>i know that the UCLA application does not specifically ask about this</p>
<p>but if they were to do a background check and find this, how serious would it be? I mean, his grades are great and hes a very determined worker</p>
<p>Depends actually. He's a minor so a background check would be illegal under U.S. law. They would have to go to court to see his file, but colleges don't waste their time doing that. Thats from the best of my knowledge about that issue.</p>
<p>Why does it not surprise me that Mister Sinister would knowm how to get out of legal trouble? Here, I'd listen to his opinion.</p>
<p>Sorry Moose, I don't know.</p>
<p>IF you didn't know, why did you even bother posting anything to begin with? Seriously, get off my case idiot. It's basic common law.</p>
<p>woah woah, no need to get mad at eachother</p>
<p>thanks a bunch both of you guys</p>
<p>anyone else?? please???</p>
<p>Because moose sent me a PM asking my opinion. You probably aren't bothered with many of us given your ethics issues. Thanks for your PM too Sinister, it was more mature that your post here tonight! Now go study for the SATs and then you'll get your cookies!</p>
