Re: expungeing a felony

If you search Lawguru.com's Q&A database (under Michigan criminal law) for "setting aside a conviction" or "expungment" you will see dozens of similar questions and answers.

Michigan allows only a person's "one and only" criminal conviction to be set aside. So, with MORE than 1 conviction, your boyfriend cannot set aside either conviction.

Why isn't HE asking this question?? He's the one who created his prior record, and has to deal with having such a record ... so why do "we" (you two) have to work on removing them from his record??
