Dear LawGuru Friend,

Computers play strange tricks on me, and for some

reason I did not see your question until just now,

Tuesday, January 26, 2010...at least for sure it's Tuesday.

(Humor intended!) Sorry about your legal problem! It would be

hard for a lawyer to give you advice based on just the

few facts that have been presented in your question.

Nevertheless, depending on the time of the conviction,

you do have the right to seek appellate review of the

case. However, if you will e-mail me your phone

number, I will call you and discuss this matter with you

further. Of course, there will be no charge for my doing

so. I am now retired from the practice of law after having

been actively engaged in law practice for over 41 years.

Best of luck to you!

With kindest regards, and stanging by awaitng your

e-mail with you phone number, just in case you care to

discuss this further with me, I am

Sincerely,

Hardy Parkerson, J.D.
