Legal Question in Criminal Law in Minnesota

In November of 2011 I was convicted of a felony with a stay of imposition with 5 years probation. After completing probation in August 2016 it was supposed to be deemed a misdemeanor. It has not been dropped down yet. And is making it very difficult to get a job. What can I do?

Contact court admin and make sure they have it entered properly. It should show misd. dispo. after successful completion of probation.

Call the court. Make sure they have processed the stay of imposition now that you have been discharged successfully from probation. The court should also notify the BCA of that development. If nothing works, have a lawyer help you.
