Legal Question in Criminal Law in California

DNA testing

In 1987 I pled guilty to one count of 288.AC in 12/87. I served 9 months in county jail and had 5 years probation subsequently discharged 6/92 or one year earlier per 1203.3 and 1203.4. I have registered annually since then although registration was not listed as a requirement on any docs throughout the case/probation. My question now relates to the collection of DNA. Can you tell me if I am subject to this based on the information I provided. If so, can you tell me if there are any current cases pending challenging the states ability to invade my person on a conviction from 1987? Are all these subsequent laws retroactive? Should I even continue to register? I've had attorneys tell me both ways but figured until now I wouldn't rock the boat. Financially I can now afford to fight if need be to protect my interests. Thanks for your help.

Why don't you work now upon cleaning up your record by 1) reducing the charge; 2) expunging your records; and, 3) executive clemency? Call me directly at (619) 222-3504.
