Legal Question in Criminal Law in New Jersey

I was charged with distribution 13yrs ago, but plead guilty to consipiracy to distribute. I applied for expungement, but just received a letter stating the prosecutor is recommending it be denied because of my original charge being 27grams of Marijuana and a lot of other terminology I don't understand.

Should I removed my petition for expungement and seek an attorney and are these things ever worked out due to the fact, I've been an upstanding citizen 13yrs since then?

Were you to litigate the matter, there is a good chance that your conviction would be expunged. However, there are several legal issues involved, including issues that have never before been decided by an appellate court judge. Your application has potential to succeed but, unless you have a lawyer intimately familiar with expungements, your chances are small.

The amount of marijuana involved is of considerable importance. I believe that you can get your expungement, despite the prosecutor's objection. Call me if you like.

I would be happy to review the lettere from the prosecutor at no charge to see exactly what his objection is. I handle expungements, so I believe I can assist you in this matter. Please contact me to discuss this. I never charge for just discussing a person's case with them. Thank you.

Sincerely yours, -Ronald Aronds, Esq.-
