To answer your specific question, I think that it would depend entirely on the particular agency involved and the level of clearance required.
In the case of the CIA or NSA, I'd say "forget it". :(

Yes, but what level of clearance does this involve - TS/SCI, TS, "secret" or "confidential, etc." ?

I've just never heard that term used before. :-?

I recently applied for a job with the federal government and have to obtain a public trust security clearance, however back in November the police ran into my house and found some illegal substance and locked me up I spent 12hours in holding and had to go to court in march I plead no contest and  I had to pay 45.00 in court cost and unsupervised probation for 6months the charge is a misdemeanor, so my question is could I be denied a public trust for this occurrence
