Re: suspended from job of 5 years/over 20yr old felony

There is no way to expunge this conviction completely from your record in North Dakota. Was the conviction in North Dakota?

However my guess is that you were convicted of a Misdemeanor by disposition. (I would have to see the judgment from the court to determine) If you indeed plead guilty to the felony, but was sentenced to less a year all suspended, under ND law you are deemed convicted of a Misdemeanor.

The law that controls this disposition is North Dakota Century Code � 12.1-32-02(9)
