What is the name of your state? What is the name of your state? What is the name of your state? California
21 years ago, (when I was 18), I was convicted of accessory to Grand Theft. This was my first and only time coming in contact with the police (even as a child, I had never been arrested).
Is is possible to have this conviction reduced to a misdemeanor? If so, would I then be able to have the conviction explunged?
I have never checked off on an employment application that I have been convicted of a felony. Fortunately for me, employers typically check back seven to ten years for criminal background checks (besides, I have always worked in human resources). Prior to this, background checks were done stricitly through fingerprinting. Naturally, I avoided those type of positions. However, recently I resigned from a position in the airline industry, because the Federal Aviation Administration was going to fingerprint me (due to the September 11th tradegy).
I'm currently working on a business degree and would like to not be limited to certain industries. One day I hope to work in law enforcement -- from a business stand point.
Any information you can provide me would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks much.
