Legal Question in Criminal Law in Florida

I have 2 misdemeanors. 1-) In 2000,Petty Theft & the action taken by the judge was WH/Adj w/Fine and court cost. I sealed this case 2-) In 2010, Petty theft & the action taken was Does Nolle Pros-Cour Opt. I know I can not sealed/expunged the 2nd case, but I was suggested to get an attorney and fight this charge & get it dismissed or to be found not guilty. I also was suggested to apply for a pardon from the Governor. I was looking through the pardon definition and it has been defined as �the forgiveness of crime and the penalty associated with it, so Ia m confused here. If I had no conviction b/c I got Nolle Pros-Cour Opt, can I still ask for full pardon? If so, does being granted a full pardon means that the 2nd case wont show on a records check? Please, advice. Thanks.
