If it is a government department and verification is carried out through police then it will reflect otherwise if a private employer is conducting standard search he will rarely found out.

It will not affect your background as the case is still going on and a person is quite innocent unless the guilt is proved against him.

Dear Sir

You should have challenged before High Court

Those cases will be many a times closed at the investigation stage. Try by getting an excellent advocate

Depends upon the depth of verification research, and the volumes of record digged into by your new employer.

In case this is a Pvt. Firm which is hiring you, I think this pending criminal case will not surface in the verification exercise conducted by them.

what were the charges levied against you ?

2) if you were in jail you do have criminal record and would be reflected in back ground verification

1. Background verification are done using identification details. So, it depends upon which ID you submitted to police.

2. But, You need to disclose with your new employer's HR that you have pending case against you.

Hello,

If he conducts the background through the police then the same will be reflected and if the same is conducted at this personal level then the same will not be reflected.

If the employer seeks police clearance then it will reflect on the report given by police regarding your antecedent if the employer does not seek police clearance then you need not bother. Also you will be just labeled as accused and not a convict so the accusations may not harm your job prospects

If you are convicted and sentenced to undergo imprisonment then that will certainly create an adverse impact in the police verification report.

You may await court verdict on this for further steps.

Your criminal case pending before the court can reflect on the background verification, if proper due diligence is done by the company.

The chances of it happening are very meagre.
