First time Offender
I was charged with felony possesion w/ intent of marijuana in 1995. I plead guilty for the ''first-time offender status'' yet if you goto www.courts.state.va.us it shows me as guilty of felony. I contacted the clerk and was told it was misdeamenor.
A. How can I go about correcting this on the website (clerk told me since it was inactive it cannot be edited.)?
B. I though that after i completed my probation and paid fines on time the charges would be dismissed under first -time status except for the courts knowledge in case of other charges later. They are saying it was a guilty conviction.
C. How long does a misdeamenor conviction stay on your record and how can it be removed?
Thank You.
