Re: deffered jucification AFTER probation

If you have a conviction you cannot get an expunction or a nondisclosure. It will never come off of your records, unless there is a change in the law. If you got deferred adjudication, then you can apply for a nondisclosure (if you qualify) after you complete it, and do not commit any other offense. Generally it is one year for misdemeanors and five years for felonies.
