The conviction will remain on your record permanently unless and until you have it expunged or receive a pardon from the governor. Pardons are rare but expungements are easily obtained for most misdemeanor convictions. Feel free to contact me directly if you want to seek an expungement.

Forever. If you want to discuss expungement, to see if it is possible in your case, feel free to contact me. Successful expungement would allow you to say 'no' on most employment applications when asked if convicted.
