Legal Question in Criminal Law in Iowa
I was arrested at a Rolling Stones Concert back in 1995 for possession of several hand rolled marijuana cigarettes in Ames Iowa. I am from Illinois about 4hrs away from the concert location. I hired an attorney to help me plead guilty while not having to appear in court, paid a $500 dollar fine and thought that was the end of it. Well of course it was not. Can i get this charge cleared any way? It was well over 15 years ago, I have since graduated collage, got married, started a family and this misdemeanor conviction is seriously holding me back. Thanks TJ

The short answer is no, there is no expungement in Iowa except for minor in possession of alcohol, I think.
