If granted a Suspended Imposition of Sentence the Court views the matter as a conviction until such a time that a successful Discharge Order is signed releasing you from the Court’s jurisdiction. We strongly suggest that the probationer be honest on all applications and provide further clarification to the potential employer if necessary. Once the sentence has been completed successfully and a Discharge Order signed, your record for this felony is sealed and you may then rightfully answer “NO†to that question on applications.anted a Suspended Imposition of Sentence the Court views the matter as a conviction until such a time that a successful Discharge Order is signed releasing you from the Court’s jurisdiction.
