Re: Drug felony
Probably. It's done through an 'expungement', which means motions to the court to reduce the charges and then dismiss [expunge] the misdemeanor so that you show no conviction on your record. Feel free to contact me if serious about getting the legal help you'll need to do so.
Re: Drug felony
Yes you can, it is a 17b motion. Although it all depends on the reason and the judges, I would recomend you waite until the 3 years of probation are over. If you would like us to help you it would cost $2,500.
Good Luck.
Re: Drug felony
Unfortunately, possession of marijuana for sale, Health & Safety Code Section 11359, cannot be reduced to misdemeanor. However, you can "expunge" your conviction if you have successfully completed your probation.
