Legal Question in Criminal Law in California

I was arrested for domestic violence in Colorado in 2006. I plead down to a misdemeanor criminal mischief charge. I have heard that it must be ten years after the conviction in order for me to petition for a state pardon. I graduate college in a month and fear that my record will prevent me from gaining employment. I have no other charges on my record and since I was convicted the only violation of the law has been a speeding ticket. Is it possible for me to try to get a state pardon now?

Not sure why you posted this under California law. Since the charges were in Colorado you should consult a Colorado attorney

You've inadvertently selected California instead of Colorado in the pull down menu when you posted your question. You will need to repost for Colorado attorneys to answer.
