I was convicted of cdv first offense in 2012. In 2022 I was arrested but not convicted of a felony. I went trough pti and had it expunged. In between that time I had a traffic court charge removed. Can I have multiple charges expunged off of my record?
answered on Jun 20, 2023
Multiple charges can be expunged depending on the charge(s). A person is allowed to apply for an expungement of their record more than once.
"Have you ever been convicted, pled guilty or pled nolo contendere to a felony of any kind or to a non-felony crime involving drugs or moral turpitude?"
I was charged with a misdemeanor for shoplifting. I completed PTI and was never convicted and never plead guilty. I then had the charge expunged.
answered on Jul 21, 2022
The answer to your question is "yes". You can state that you have never been convicted, assuming this is your only criminal court case. PTI is not a conviction, it is a diversion program that allows you to resolve your charge without going to court and entering a plea.
Best of luck

There are a lot of reasons why this could occur, but, no it definitely does not mean a case is going to trial with no plea deal.

If you are in fact convicted of Burglary 1st degree the minimum sentence is 15 years. That being said depending on the facts your attorney may be able to get a plea to a lesser charge that does not carry minimum jail time.

Unlawful carry of a pistol carries up to 1 year. Based on your question i am unsure of the other charge that you are talking about. If you are talking about possession of a weapon by a person convicted of a crime of violence under state law that charge carries up to 5 years.
