How much and how long to exsponge a felony

Richard Keith Oliver
Answered by attorney Richard Keith Oliver (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at The Law Office of Rick Oliver
If it's a conviction it cannot be sealed or expunged. If you got deferred probation, and successfully completed it, you can have it sealed. To be eligible to have it expunged, the case would have to have been a dismissal, or an acquittal after a trial. The cost varies from attorney to attorney. Once filed, the process can take anywhere from 4-6 months, in my experience.

Can a Child Protective Services determination of abuse trigger a criminal charge?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Terry Alan Nelson (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Nelson & Lawless
Trigger a criminal charge? Absolutely. I'd be surprised if it didn't. When threatened or charged with any crime, the proper questions are, can any evidence obtained in a test, search or confession be used against you, can you be convicted, and what can you do? A little free advice: exercise the 5th Amendment right to SHUT UP and do NOT talk to police or anyone about the case except with and through an attorney. Raise all appropriate defenses with whatever witnesses, evidence and sympathies are available for legal arguments, for evidence suppression or other motions, or for trial. If you don't know how to represent yourself effectively against an experienced prosecutor intending to convict, then hire an attorney who does, who will try to get a dismissal, charge reduction, diversion, program, or other decent outcome through plea bargain, or take it to trial if appropriate.

If I'm 17 and got charged with a Misdemeanor class A for "car hopping" and I don't want it on my background, what should I do?

Jared Clayton Austin
Answered by attorney Jared Clayton Austin (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Austin Legal Services, PLC
If you commit a crime between the ages of 17 and 21, most offenses and all misdemeanors are eligible for HYTA which means any conviction would not appear on your public record upon successful completion of your sentence. You may also be eligible for a diversion program which would have the same effect. Consult with an attorney in your area.
