Re: prior guilty plea
The answer to that is unfortunately no. There is no expungement in Iowa. If you got a deferred judgment you may be able to restrict access to the information but it will still be in the NCIC system.
It is, however, remote in time and you can use it as the basis of a great success story about how far you've come. People like success stories.
