How does one initiate exspongement procedures for a deferred adjudication that has exhausted?

Hello cat:

If adjudication was deferred and then exhausted, then a conviction NEVER happened. Therefore, there's NOTHING to expunge.

Not true excon go to Deferred Adjudication (http://www.deferredadjudication.org/)
Deferred adjudication is considered a conviction by most states out side of Texas and in federal court, and by employers. It's a crock of s**t. In Texas they now ask on a job application "have you ever been convicted of OR taken deferred adjucation for any felony" to get around the "loophole" of it not being a "conviction". Texas legislature has done everything in its power to make sure that not being convicted ends up as being seen as a conviction. THANK YOU REPUBLICANS

And the greatest part of all. Since it wasn't a conviction, you can't ever get it expunged (maybe that's what you meant excon) but you can get an order of non disclosure if it's a non violent felony or a misdemeanor

How long has it been since it was "exhausted" as you put it? And what was the original crime and state?

Deferred adjudication is not considered a conviction. If they were to run a finger print or criminal record it would not show up on your record. And as far as Texas employment applications I have never seen or been asked if you've had a deferred adjucation. So to be honest I would answer no to the question on a conviction on a job application. Because you were not convicted
