Were you convicted?
It may be possible to file a motion to seal your record, but I need more information. You can call me at 410 975 9401

The simple answer is that in all probability you cannot have it "dropped from your record". There
are public policy reasons as to why this type of
criminal conviction is not eligible for expunge-
ment of the record or to have the record sealed.
