Re: Felony

In Michigan, there is a statute to set aside a conviction to make it a non-public record. You need 5 years to pass, and have no other criminal convictions or counts to qualify. It is then up to the judge. If this is in SE Michigan, I would be happy to assist you. If is elsewhere, I can find you a referral. Visit my website at www.kliszlaw.com or call to discuss further.
