There are no fees (except perhaps court filing fees) associated with doing PRO SE work on your own case. It DOES take time and patience though.
All states have a law that coners this. Best thing to do would be to consult with an attorney. This is not a do-it-yourself project.
Yes, it is possible to join the US Army with a juvenile battery charge. You would still have to receive a waiver despite the charge having been expunged.
It could. If you had a withhold of adjudication on the charge I suggest you have your charge sealed or expunged.
In South Carolina, a misdemeanor marijuana charge stays on your record for life. However, there is an opportunity to request an expungement, provided the individual has no other criminal record.
Each state is different. In the state of Florida the adjudication of guilt MUST be withheld. After you have completed your sentence, whether it be probation or jail time, you will be eligible to apply to have your record sealed. If you would like it expunged the state attorney's office must sign off on it.
Expungement procedures and requirements vary from state to state and you will have to look at your state statutes for the particular procedures to follow in your state, or to even know if you are eligible to have the dismissed charges expunged. In Florida, for example, there are certain arrests that cannot be expunged, even though the charges were ultimately dismissed. When your record is expunged, it is physically destroyed, and the public will no longer have access to it. Although in many states, one copy is retained by the state's central law enforcement agency and there are situations in which you would still have to reveal you've had a record expunged.
The average cost for a simple will is around fifty dollars. The most an attorney would charge would be around one hundred dollars.
If you are convicted of driving while intoxicated as an adult, there are not many options for getting it removed from your record all together. You would need to contact a very skilled attorney to begin the process of getting the charge expunged from your record. Contact a lawyer in your state that is very familiar with the DUI/DWI laws in your state.
You would have to contact the department you are interested in and inquire if it would affect your chances. It makes no difference if the charge was expunged or not. Expunction only removes your history from the PUBLICLY available records. Law enforcement the courts and government agencies always have access to them.
No, not necessarily. To remove the public record of your arrest and imprisonment, you would probably need to file a motion to have your record "EXPUNGED." States may vary, check with an attorney.
You would have to consult an attorney. We think not. Added: I agree with the first answer. Because of the nature of the crime, I believe that Domestic Violence, is one of those offenses that may be non-expungible.
Envisage what school would be like without anyone in charge. Who would create or enforce the rules? Who gets the gym if two classes get there at the same time? Who would make the lunch or clean the classrooms? Without any one in charge it would be utter chaos. Envisage what school would be like without anyone in charge.
