I recieved my docket sheet finally (faxed, they are mailing the certified copy). It has a judgement of dismissal written on it signed by the judge, so I guess that's all I need.

I am having a copy of the docket/dispostion sheet sent to me. I had to fax them in a letter to request this because it was an older case. They told me that this case should not even show up though because it had been dismissed. I still would have to list the arrest, but how would I elaborate on it?

I guess I should correct the "fine" term I used. I actually paid a bond, as I have a bond sheet, then when the motion to dismiss was sent to me a portion of this bond was returned to me. I will call the prosecuters office and get this clarified though.

well, I believe it would have been a felony (bad check?), but I have a copy of the motion to dismiss, so I don't believe it should effect me. I am new to this though, so I have no idea.

About four years ago I was "arrested" when I lived in Missouri for an outstanding warrant for a insufficent check. The check was about 4 years prior to that, but I had moved several time and had not caught any attention, so I guess it went unnoticed. We'll it caught up to me when I signed up for a ride along. I was just curious as to what an officer does and wanted to understand them I guess. Well, they apparently do a background check when you do this. I was brough to the station, finger printed, never photographed and sat there and talk with the officers while I waited for my wife to bring the money to pay the "fine". I talked to the prosecuter at the time this happened and he mention that any charges would be dropped. Anyhow, my question is, how will this effect me when I apply for my CHL? Keep in mind this is all new to me.
