I'm convicted of assault and carrying a knife. Is there a big risk employers will look at my criminal record and think I'm convicted of assault WITH a knife? If so, maybe they will think that's a lot worse and it will be worse for me. I have a few days left to appeal the court order, hate myself for procrastinating, time is almost up now. I don't think I can be acquitted of the assault conviction and probably not have it lessened either, but I MIGHT be able to be acquitted of the knife conviction, even though my public defender says he doesn't think so, but he's a faggot and I don't trust him. But is it even worth the hassle to appeal the knife conviction or should I just let it be? The court thinks some people stopped the assault, but they didn't actually do that. Do you think that affects the sentence?
It's a type of knife that you are allowed to carry, they said this in the court order, however they said because I was aggressive while carrying it I'm convicted. That's what my public defender stated as the reason he thinks it won't be overturned, that I was aggressive while carrying it. The reason I think there MIGHT be a chance to have it overturned is that I didn't answer questions at all at the trial, but I realized afterwards I should have answered questions about the knife if they had any. I let my public defender talk instead and what he said about the knife was fairly accurate, however they might think that because I didn't want to comment myself I have something to hide.

I'm in Europe, people are telling me there's no difference between a private defender (what American's call a lawyer) and a public defender, it's the same people who do both jobs here. I don't know, maybe the same person will do a better job if he is hired privately compared to when he is public defender. I was thinking of getting a private defender for the trial but I got the idea too late so I just kept my public defender. I think maybe the best advice I got online was to change my appearance, but I didn't realize this until after the trial so it's too late for that now. I only have a few days left to appeal so I don't know if I have time to talk to a lawyer about it. I sent questions to my public defender but he was playing dumb in the reply and is an unhelpful faggot. Maybe I could send in or hand in an appeal to the court and then get a private defender to join me if the appeal is taken up, i.e. if there is a new trial, which would probably be only for the knife. But maybe the knife thing means nothing anyway and I should just let it be.

I was not fucking using the knife at all, I was just carrying it, that's whole fucking point, are you retarded?

what country? I've been arrested for some serious crimes (which look real, real bad on paper) in the past and unless I am trying to work with the young or vulnerable then they don't do a criminal background check here in the UK.
Nathaniel White
I'm in Western Europe, don't want to say which country in order to be anonymous. I was recently interviewed for a menial job which is not involved with the young or vulnerable and yet they asked for my criminal record.
Brayden Harris
Your country clearly has different laws then. Your past doesn't define you and you sound like you are worrying and racing through it all 100mph in your head. What will be will be and whatever the outcome you have to take it and deal with it like a man. Good luck user.
Julian Nelson
Why are you carrying an assault knife to your job interview
William Turner
You can also leave the EU to Africa and come back in as a refugee on a tunisian plastic boat. You'll get paid monthly as a bonus

If you like weapons and fights, join the military for a little while. Future employers will see a clean record of military service following your crimes and it will be fine.
Yeah but should I appeal the knife conviction or let it be?
Jordan Wood

First thing first is ask the public defender to ask for a delay because you are changing to a private lawyer. Yes get a fucking Lawyer right now.
