What is a dismissed conviction?

It means just what the wod implies, they were dismissed. However- there are two types of dismissal; dismissal WITH prejudice, and dismissal WITHOUT prejudice. "With" means that the charge "goes away" and that particular charge cannot be re-instituted. "Without" means that although the charge was dismissed you CAN be re-charged once again. You definitely need to find out which one applies to you. A "dismissed" conviction does not mean that you're found "not guilty," or were "pardoned." The record will appear on your criminal history record.

I had a misdemeanor case in which I plead guilty reopened in Mich with both the convicting judge prosecuting attrny judge changed the judgment to not guilty case dismissed is this still a conviction?

No. Once it is overturned and dismissed, it ceases being a conviction. You might need to have some paperwork cleaned up to reflect that.When it is overturned and then dismissed it ceases being a conviction.If the case was dismissed with prejudice, it may not be over. If the case was dismissed without prejudice, you are a free person with that conviction.Point of advice, unless you are fully prepared to do the time and are happy with the potential sentence, never submit a guilty plea...no matter how guilty you are. By doing so, you are voluntarily giving up your civil rights, and you generally have little recourse.
