Charge with fraud under $5000 in 1988 and you were given 2 yrs probation and restitution of $2000 . All in front of judge no jury. Your lawyer broker the deal. Would this be a summary conviction .

What do you mean by "summary conviction".

Where do you live? Don't say Earth because we won't believe you.

I believe a summary conviction is a conviction which doesn't require an indictment or trial.

Yes, it appears it was a summary conviction.
