I was charged with theft under about 3 years ago and I just found out about the charge when I did a criminal record check what is going to happen, I am innocent.

Please reread your question. I think you left out a word or two. "with theft under about " Were you arrested for the theft and did it come to court?

I read the statement as being charged with theft less than 3 years ago.

I am guessing that the judgement was found against you since you said it was found on your criminal record.

Were you charged? Did you have a charge and not appear? Is this a mistaken identity case? Years ago my brother was almost arrested for a charge that was under his name, but not the same man.

I also can only assume what you mean I will guess you are from canada since that is the term normally used there "theft under 5000 dollars"

So I will also assume you meanyou were charged with theft under 5000, about three years ago, and you claim you "just found out" you were charged with it.

Well were you caught stealing something about 3 years ago ?

But if there is a charge against you, then there will be a warrant, you need to go down and turn yourself in, and get this over with
