Conviction in a criminal case often results in the need to resign a job, whether due to incarceration or a moral clause. This letter template explains an employee situation and also offers an apology for any negative impact on the company.

I am sorry for any negative effect my actions may have had on XYZ Company. It was my great pleasure to work with you and the rest of the team.
