Criminal Records, Expungement California records clearance

[CosmoKenney]

In California, is it possible for an adult to clear a misdemeanor conviction (from 16 years ago)? I already got a 1203.4, but that's pretty much useless for background checks. I am a software engineer and work for elections related government agencies. I don't want my background to get me fired.

You can certainly consult an Attorney and discuss expungment

Attorneys charge a lot of Money. I like to be informed when I'm about to spend a lot of money.

This is a pretty good discussion of Expungement in California. Good luck it is probably going to take an attorney to do it. http://www.1800duilaws.com/article/expungement101.asp
