I granted a diversion from the magistrate this week due to my first offence, my age and that the offence was minor and non serious. I am still in great stress because my name and the court date l attended are still showing up on the search for my name in one of the daily newspapers. What is the benefit of the diversion if any employer can search my name and find out that I attended courts before? Any idea when the newspaper lists will vanish or will they stay on the web forever? Any idea how to remove it please?
The other question, when I can apply for a police check without worrying if anything will show up in it? Legal Aid thinks it’s better to wait for one month?
I am very sad and stressed, especially because of the newspaper result. Any advice or previous experience would be highly appreciated.
