My son arrested for DUI and it was reduced to probation. He did not report to probation and would like to relocate to another state. If they do a background check for a job in the new state will this show up?

If your son was convicted for a violation of the terms of his probation, the conviction will end up as a permanent record for him and most likely it will show up on all background checks for employment in every state in this country.
If he does not have a conviction yet for violating his probation, he should retain a criminal defense attorney to assist him. Good luck to you and him.
