Re: Can this be expunged or removed in some way

The one under Article 893 should be taken care of first. You must file a motion to dismiss based on that Article and the fact you completed probation successfully. After that is dismissed, then you have only one felony and may be eligible for a first offender pardon or to have the record expunged. You need to see an attorney so he can know all the details and proceed accordingly.
