Were you charged or convicted?

Hello M:

Expunged records won't help you with your law degree. Expungement only hides your records. If asked on an application if you've been convicted of a felony, with expunged records, you are required to say yes. Plus, the state bar you'll be applying to will know about it.

You're going to need a full blown pardon. Let's see, you were convicted in Texas. Hmmm, that's the state that's fried more people than the rest put together, isn't it? Good Luck.

Bwa, ha ha ha ha. I don't mean to laugh, but I'm a cynic. If you know a good Texas lawyer, call him up and ask.
