Criminal Records, Expungement Expunged conviction

[raiderman610]

In 1990 I was convicted of a felony in California. In 1994 my conviction was set aside and expunged to a misdemeanor. I am currently seeking employment with a law enforcement agency in California and the application asks if you have been convicted of a felony what do I say and if by saying yes can they automaticaly disqualify me?

If your record has been expunged, you have not LEGALLY been convicted of a felony.

It would be proper to say that you have no felony convictions.

If the agency questions this and says that you were, you could then pull out your legal documents to support your claim.

You'll never know until you try.
