What is the name of your state? Michigan
Over a year ago I was arrested and charged with misdemeanor possession of Marijuana in Michigan.
I plead guilty (dumb of me I know), and was given a deferred sentence (7411).
I completed my probation with no problems and was discharged.
Here is my problem: I am applying for clinicals in a collegiate nursing program, and MI law says I have to wait 3 years before I can participate if I was convicted of a drug offense. Does receiving and completing a deferred sentence count as being convicted?
