Were you convicted or was it dismissed, how did you get it dismissed two years latter, was it a plea deal?
If you were actually convicted of a domestic voilence crime, you can not carry a gun, and thus can not be a correctional officer.
If you were convicted of a felony you can not be.

OK I plead no contest cause what happened that night was a mistake and my fault to an extent and two years later it was dismissed because I did not get arrested again. Now according to the laws of New York and federal I can own a hand gun as long as it was dismissed and the military looked in to my charge and gave me a waiver for the charge and let me back in after the federal background check. As for the felony thing it was a misterminer. I am hopeing that if they see that I have made changes in my life such as going back to the military and joining the volunteer firefights that it is possible I don't have to be in the active military for the rest of my life to make a living

As long as it was dismissed, ( the military wavier does not apply)
But if it was dismissed, why did you need a waiver for something you were not convicted of )
If it was really dismissed then you should be able to.

Well to join the military you need to disclose everything and I did and I was told I needed a wavier in other words I shut my mouth and did what I was told... I pray that everything will work out cause it was dimissed otherwise it looks like 16 more years of military service thanks for the info I feel a lot better...

And while it sounds silly, check about being a Federal Correctional Officer, in NY they get paid less than the state officers ( or at least it was that way some years ago)
And as long as there is no issue with possession of a gun, many will offer vaivers for minor issues also

If your record is clean you should be able to get a disposition from the courts that will explain everything instead of guessing.

You are correct, I mis-quoted, thanks for being a rude jerk and giving a negative and a post to point it out
