In Canada: question about referee (Concerned)

MsM1998_ · September 2016

This specific professor is my second referee for my OLSAS (I haven't added him yet). Almost 10 years ago, he had a little problem with the government in Canada at the time (no charges) and this can be found when typing his name into a google search. I know he is going to write me a great LOR, but I'm wondering if having him as my referee will hurt me in any way? Do law schools look into the referees? I'm not sure what to think of this situation.

I would think the adcomms won't go into so much detail with who exactly the professor is, just as long as it's stated in the LOR. @david.busis will have a better response.

Howdy, Stranger!
