Legal Question in Criminal Law in California

Re: removing a felony from record

Good luck. A properly done, properly supported and properly based motion might succeed in getting the conviction expunged. You could then apply to civilian employment without admitting conviction on your record. BUT, most PD's do extensive background checks that will find the record; they all require you to disclose past convictions and arrests under penalty of purgery; most disqualify for prior convictions, whether expunged or not. Contact me if you want to discuss the process and costs of expungement.
