I know that they conduct a background check on him, and collect his finger prints. You would think, despite it being a pretty mild thing, that the fact that he got arrested would have shown up, and the fact that we answered the question "no" (it was an arrest that we assumed was for a traffic violation, which the attorney informed us was not a traffic violation, and the question on the form specifically excludes traffic violations) would have raised an eyebrow or something. We were rather proactive in disclosing it; when she asked whether our forms were all correct, we said "no, we have to make a change" and explained what it was, why we'd answered it the other way, and provided, upon request, a copy of the discharge of arrest.
Re: more to it than that, though....
