Probably yes. If your record was, in fact, legally expunged, it means that any record of the arrest/offense no longer exists and it will not be found when doing a background check on you. CAUTION: Don't misunderstand the meaning of 'expunged.' An "expunged" record is NOT the same as having the offfense 'dismissed' or 'pardoned.'
If you get it expunged, meaning it is no longer on your record, I would assume it wouldn't be held against you. Otherwise, felony charges, as well as misdemeanors could disqualify you.
Another View: No, VERY unlikely. Even though a criminal record may be expunged, all that means is that the general public cannot gain access to it. Your record never really "goes away" and is always available to law enforcement, the court system, and government agencies - especially when they are conducting background checks or security clearances.
HIGHLY unlikely. Expungement only removes your criminal record from being viewed by the PUBLIC records. Government agencies and background investigators will always be able to access it.
Felonies!! PLURAL!!! It's difficult and expensive enough to get one felony expunged let alone several. You probably would not succeed. As a practical matter, no.
Felonies don't get expunged unless done by a Judge. Felonies are for life otherwise.
Felonies are a sort of forever thing. They will remain on your criminal record for life, unless expunged.
yes if the defendant has a mental ilness history
If you have a felony charge on your record you will not be able to get your licence
Felonies are not removed from a criminal record unless the record is expunged.
No. Law enforcement will not employ someone with a felony background - even if it is expunged.
The licensing agency for your state will have access to your past criminal records (even if expunged) and it is unlikely they would grant the license. However, you should contact your state licensing agency and ask specifically.
Felonies typically always will remain on a criminal record unless expunged.
No, not all types of felonies make you ineligible to become a police officer. Most juvenile offenses cannot be carried over to stand in the way of a person pursuing a career in law enforcement. You can also choose to have a crime expunged from your record and would then be eligible to pursue this type of career as well.
Felonies can never be expunged from you record they are on there forever. I think though on applications for employment they only has for up to ten years previoius and you are eligible to get your civil rights back like voting and carrying a weapon after five years, but there is a process to it. Good luck!
Felonies are a part of your permanent record and can therefore be seen on your criminal history forever. The only way to have it remove is by having it expunged through the court that handed down the decision.
No. Misdemeanors are lesser crimes and Felonies are major crimes.
