Legal Question in Criminal Law in New York

espungement

I plead guilty to a felony charge conspiracy 105.1 I don't know what that means but it was for a car accident scam they charge me because the insurance company press charges for medical bill because I never received any money I didn't even want to go through with it but the physical therapy place was in on it and they made sure they got paid I was afraid they had other charges

but they said if I plead guilty to the lesser charge I get to go home on conditional discharge and pay a fine so I did it I just had a baby, anyway now I can't get a job it's been really hard. I heard about espungement do you think it will work for someone like me ? I made a mistake and I just want to be able to support my kids without this following me forever.

Re: espungement

I hate to tell youthis but New York State does not have an espungement statue or any method of espungement. If you were the right age (17)and qualified as a youthful offender we might be able to get it sealed but outside of that there is nothing that can be done.

If you wish to discuss this matter further, you can contact me by e-mail or telephone.
