Hi I wanted to find out if a felony can be reduced to a misdemeanor 2nd degree assaut was the felony charge. And how soon should a person do that... my public defender told me we should wait till I finish my probation which was for 3 years paid my restituition. The attorney said it is a one time shot and the judge more likely approved it after you finish probation. I just wanted to get some more information on it... if that is what I should do. Because she said once the judge makes it a felony to a misdemeanor I can get it expunged... I think it s called a motion or a plea? Can some one help me with this and tell me what I shoud do thank you

You have a very involved legal problem - you have posted various other parts of the whole picture before.

You need to do what your Attorney (public defender) says. It is impossible to give advice in this situation without knowing the whole story, including Immigration's involvement.
