I have my first jury duty coming up and whats making me nervouse is that I was expunged for felony related charges.

I don't know what to say if the question pops up.

1. if or when they ask me if I know anyone that was involved in a felony type situation, what do I say.


2.If someone ask me what I was expunged for do I have the right not to tell them, or at least not the details.

3. This always confuses me, if someone ask me if I was expunged, but theres no way of them nowing because I was infact expunged, and as far as I know all records were distroyed, do I say yes, or no?

ANSWER: Tell them what you want to tell them. Nothing more or less.

3. This always confuses me, if someone ask me if I was expunged, but theres no way of them nowing because I was infact expunged, and as far as I know all records were distroyed, do I say yes, or no?.

ANSWER: You have to decide this. You are worrying about something that probably never happen. But if it does, just answer truthfully.

you can always request to speak with the judge and the attorneys in private to discuss the issue.
