Hi if any legal eagles about as I need a bit of advice. 4 years ago DNephew who was 19 at the time got caught by the revenue protection officers on a rail journey for trying to avoid paying his train fare. He pretty much forgot about his conviction whilst in university. He has applied for some jobs where he needed a DBS check and didn't declare his conviction. Which resulted in him being sacked. He has now learnt from his mistake but is unsure when his conviction will be considered spent. He now knows it's five years but he wants to know if the conviction becomes spent on the anniversary of his transgression or is it the anniversary of the conviction ie when the court hearing was heard and he received the fine etc. please can anyone advise.
