Technically you are eligible. It is up to the judge to decide so I usually suggest my clients first ask the probation officer if they will make a recommendation for early termination. If the judge has a policy of not granting it they should know. If the answer is still not clear, ask your lawyer to approach the judge to ask. If he/she will not commit I usually set a hearing and if the termination is not granted see when the judge will consider your request. A commitment by the judge may be a great help.   $1500 is a reasonable charge for the motion. I hope I have helped you and you get a good result.

No, you cannot get offenses expunged unless they were dismissed without any type of probation or community supervision, or you were found not guilty at trial.   However, 5 years after you complete deferred adjudication - you can get an order of non-disclosure entered by the court. That would basically seal the record relating to the offense from public disclosure (although law enforcement and government agencies would still be able to see it).   Good luck.

The answer depends on weather it is a misdemeanor or felony. Contact us for details. There is a difference on the SOL for civil and criminal matters and in your case it is best if you understand both. Please contact us or your local attorney to discuss.
