In 1993, I plead guilty to a misdemeanor and felony charge for two worthless checks. I served no time and had 1 year inactive probation. Last year I had them expunged. I know law officials still have access to this information, but here is my question…

On an application I want to fill out, there is a disclaimer that states the following:

ALL APPLICANTS: Do not include information concerning any conviction for which the record has been judicially ordered sealed, erased, or expunged, or has been statutorily eradicated.

The first question after this disclaimer is this:

Have you ever been convicted of a felony or a misdemeanor? Include participation in court-ordered programs, as well as instances of deferred adjudication, suspended sentences, and pleas of “no contest.” Exclude minor traffic offenses and convictions to which the jurisdictional disclaimers and directives above apply.

If it's previously mentioned to not include expunged information, wouldn't my answer to this question be “No?”
I'm a little confused here. All help on this would be appreciated. Thank you.

I'm confused too, and I can promise you, the company is even MORE confused than we are. Nonetheless, I'd say no. I'd ALSO make a copy of your application for future reference.

Thank you for your response. I kind of messed up my question when I added those quotation marks. Lol

Your answer would be "no" due to the instruction about having the records judically sealed not being included.
