Infraction in criminal records
I have an infraction in my criminal record (Driving w/o driver's license)
It reads: DISPO: convicted
Conviction status: infraction
Fine: $100
I wanted to expunge this, but I talked to a lawyer, and she said that infractions can not be expunged and that infractions are not criminal crimes. So she said that I can legally answer "no" to the question: Have you ever been convicted of a crime?
Is this true?
What if the employers see that I have a conviction for an infraction in my criminal record, and if I answer no to the have you ev... question, they would think that I lied. I am confused.
