What is the name of your state? California (doesn't matter for the question however)
Hey guys,
A few years ago when I was a juvenile I did a paper note robbery of a bank and was caught and convicted as a juvenile. Due to the circumstances of the case my record could not get sealed. My legal counsel has informed me that my last line of action is to see if the victim will agree to allow me to retroactively reduce the charge to extortion so that I can have my case sealed.
Talk about karma. The entity that I committed a crime against now has control over whether I may get my record sealed and move on, or carry my conviction for the rest of my life. They have no incentive to help me either, so as my lawyer told me, it is unlikely that the bank will agree to reduce the charge against me. Still I will try.
I would like any helpful advice about what I should say to them to help my case as I have no idea what I should say. Any advice?
I imagine this question will be a magnet for people to berate me so I'll just say that I'm not a criminal anymore and I am sorry for what I did.
Thanks
