Re: sealing, pardon, nolo contendre misdemeanor

If you pled, then you have a conviction. If it has been five years since completing your sentence and you don't have anything new on your record, you may qualify for a pardon. We submit a petition to the Board of Pardons and Paroles. Email me directly for more information.
