No because you didnt do anything wrong if you were found not guilty.
You go to trial, and you're either found not guilty or guilty. If found guilty, you'll serve time.
Yes, a person who has been charged with a felony but not convicted of the crime can be the executor of an estate depending where that person is in the legal process. A person who has been charged with a felony is considered innocent until proven guilty.
Convictions- or a charge pending trial- is a disqualifier. Charged, but charge dropped or found not guilty- NOT a disqualifier.
no if found guilty you will be charged with a misdemeanor,but you could pay a fine or jail time.
I think the only way to expunge a felony is if it happened when the person was a juvenile and found guilty as a juvenile. If it happended as an adult I dont think they can expunge a felony.
Yes, there are lesser offenses with which you could be charged. Have your attorney speak with the prosecutor and see if the prosecutor will plea bargain it to a lesser offense in exchange for your guilty plea (IF you are truly guilty).If you plan on pleading not guilty don't bother thinking of plea bargaining.

DUI is not a felony in New Hampshire. Stupid, but not a felony.

Yes--Sharpton was charged with 67 felony counts of tax evasion, larceny, and fraud. He was acquitted and plead guilty to a misdemeanor charge of failure to file income taxes for 1986.
Normally it would remain on your record forever. I assume you meant felony conviction. The fact that you were charged with something is really nobody's business but yours, unless you were found guilty.
