felony expungement?

Question

what qualifications

Answer 1

You can file to get it lowered to a misdemeanor at any time, expungement is a lot harder. The Governor in my State can pardon with a lawyer and a lot of cash. You would have to be a snitch or a Saint though to get it done. Go to clerk of the court that sentenced you, and ask for a modification you can do that yourself with out a lawyer. It can't hurt, and all they can say is no.

Answer 2

u can expunge a felony provided it isn't DUI related or sexual in nature. Also, u must not have been arrested/charged w/any new crimes. Certain crimes, u will have to wait 10 years.



However, if u r a 1st time offender and your felony conviction is NON-violent (for ex., ID theft, 1st degree retail theft), u can get your expungement after 3 years.

Answer 3

Depends on your state's laws, but generally, 10 years without any other criminal charges. However, there are certain crimes that cannot be expunged: DUIs, any crime with a weapon spec, child sex offenses. It isn't that much money to expunge...I charge a couple of hundred...it's a motion to the court, and if the prosecutor doesn't object, a quick hearing and the order is sent to various agencies.

Answer 4

No qualifications on felony expungement and it could not be allowed.

Answer 5

Ten years of good citizenship is a good start. A felon may have a debt to society but he/she should be given a chance to make amends. I can't see why we should brand someone for life unless the crime is heinous.

Answer 6

can't get a conviction expunged

Answer 7

Ten years past, a clean record, and much cash.
