withdraw criminal
Can I withdraw a 20 years old nolo contendere plea misdemeanor?
and try to fight now, because I think I was ill-advised
Re: withdraw criminal
Obviously, no.
Re: withdraw criminal
No, but you may be able to have the conviction expunged.
Re: withdraw criminal
You may attempt to request it, but I do not know any judge that would honor the request. It is an issue of proof, and of fairness.
Re: withdraw criminal
The simple answer is No. However you may be able to do the next best thing which is to have your record expunged. Under California Penal Code 1203.4 your record may qualify for an expungement and although it is not the same thing as fighting back it is close. Good luck
Re: withdraw criminal
I would check with the Department of Justice in Sacramento whether the conviction even exists anywhere on the record. I had a client who was convicted in 1980's of petty theft and the trace of her conviction disappeared, both from the local court and DOJ. If it cannot be found anywhere, it does not exist, in my humble opinion.
Otherwise, have you conviction expunged.
