Q: Can I get a record expungement for a conviction of conspiracy to burglary from 2004?
I was arrested in 2004 and charged with two burglaries and two conspiracy the burglaries. I sat in Camden county jail for almost 6 months for them to investigate on trial. Now I know there was no evidence against me because I know I had nothing to do with it. I was set up by a former friend. Now I took a plea deal and pleaded guilty to conspiracy to burglary just so I didn't have to sit in jail anymore. Now I am trying to get a better job and move forward with my life but this thing is really causing a hassle in my life. is it possible to get that conviction expunged off my record
A: A burglary conviction can be expunged if you are otherwise eligible (6 years since completion of sentence), no more than 2 disorderly persons offenses and no other felony convictions.
