Hi my name is tyshawn barnes and I was wandering if you are charged with a serious charge and it gotten dropped to a less charge.

Why does the serious charge only still show up in employers background check. I gotten charged with possession of an immitation firearm fourth degree. Specifically a airsoft gun which at the time I didn't know was illegal because I bought it at a sports authority store in east brunswick, nj, they display them out in the open. My charge was dropped to a petty disorderly persons, so I don't know the original charge is still showing up in a background check as a felony conviction. Which I only gotten convicted of the petty disorderly persons. Before the employer background check came back, I did my own and it showed the petty disorderly persons so I'm confused
