if you took a plea and was convicated of a felony can it be expunged into a misdemeemor in South Carolina
You are not "convicted" unless a verdict has been rendered and a sentence pronounced. It that never took place prior to the plea bargain, then no, you are not.
The answer is no. I took a plea deal on a bad case and the police officer was discharged for lying on his case files. I was not allowed to have a new hearing due to accepting plea deal.
You can get an assault charge taken off of your record by petitioning the court to have the charge expunged. Plea your case in front of a judge. There are no guarantees that it will be taken off of your record.
An inmate who pleaded guilty might prevail on appeal if he could show ineffective assistance of counsel or some misrepresentation of the consequences of his plea, but this would be unusual.
Yes. However, you will be able to state truthfully that you were not "convicted." However, the record of your arrest and the dismissal will continue to appear on your record.
Under Mississippi Code of 1972, ann., your dilatory plea would be place on hold and once you successfully complete Pre-Trial Diversion, the Hearing Judge will sign an order dismissing the charge(s). Once that is complete, you can hire an attorney and have your record expunged.I hope that helps.
In most states, including Georgia, you cannot ever remove a charge such as cruelty to children from your record, even after five years. While the state may not be able to prosecute you on the charges once the statute of limitations runs out, once it is on your record as a plea it is the same as being found guilty of the crime and it will be on your record forever.

To have pending charges dropped after signing a plea agreement, you typically need to withdraw your plea or have your attorney file a motion to withdraw the plea. You would need to provide a valid reason for withdrawing your plea, such as new evidence or a procedural error. It's important to consult with your attorney to understand the specific steps and requirements in your jurisdiction.
