Over twenty years ago I received a First Offender's Pardon after serving my time in Louisiana. Now I live in Florida and when I apply for a job do I have to answer the question....YES, I am a convicted Felon even though I've been given the First Offender's Pardon? The job I have now only asked if I had been convicted of a felon in the last seven years, but other applications just ask: Have you ever been convicted of a felon? I would love to apply for a job with another company and I want to be honest. I also don't want to bring it up if I legally don't have to.

I believe that you since it asks only in the past seven years you can answer no if that is the case; however, if it just asks if you ever have been convicted, you must state yes.. I know here in Utah, i would be right in my answer, it is a gray area. Good luck to you
Your right i have had something expunged so maybe it is the same, i dont have to mention that. I wish you luck.. keep in touch if you need someone to chat with..
just the way it came across.. I guess i am a bit sensitive about not being right all the time lol.. but i was serious if ur ever bored and want to chat look me up..
In 1999 I was arrested for DV. Now, our son is almost out of high school and the years have been great. however, I am now ready to move on but I can not do what I want and that is join the Navy, or Army. some say I need a pardon others say I need a expungment with that said I am at a lost. Iam 38 yrs old and in good shape. It has been a long road and I have been doing my best in after my arrest I went to collage and earned a AA and a RN degree. I dont have the income to afford someone to take my case, so if someone would help or point me in the right direction this would be most help thing in my life.
