None of us are perfect and nearly all have done something they aren't proud of. I know I have plenty of mistakes I'd change if I could.

Best of luck with your process - unfortunately getting an attorney involved who is good at these things is probably the best course of action.

That seems to be the case and once I get this sorted out I’ll post an update. Thank you sir.

You have no Idea how much that hurts... Like I said before Ive spent 20 years reliving that time and it really does hurt like heck knowing you have been punished for something you didn't do. Usually I just let trolls have their way but in this case its personal and I have to defend myself. Thank you for understanding that these thing do happen to people.

I apologize, just thought you posted and left! I wish you luck with correcting any mistake with your record. Follow up and let us know how it turned out!

I will sir! It may take some time before that happens, new baby boy and of course the holidays are upon us. Once all that clears up I can focus on getting that past erased for good. Well I’ll still feel it but at least I can have the opportunity to protect my family in public.

Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family.

Completed 3 of a 5 year adjudication.... Why only 3? Where does this sentence stand?

I think you'll find a lot of understanding here but you'll need to come clean.

From the original post:
“I was accused of breaking into a house which to this day I still proclaim my innocence”
Sounds like he is saying he didn’t do it. Now only doing 3 of the five years I didn’t understand. How does that happen without additional consequences?

I appreciate your question.. This was many years ago when this took place. The judgment was 5 years probation but my probation officer sent a request to have me dismissed early. He took into consideration that I had turned my life around and at that time was going to join the Marine corps until a Nasty accident grew that out of the window.

Thank you sir!!!!!

Gotcha sir... I have the paper work for a Governor's Pardon but I have been told don't get your hopes up. Thank you sir for your reply!!!!!

Hmmm.... Ok I stated I was accused of and yes I was accused of it and did not do it. I would appreciate if you wouldn't judge so quickly. I have dealt with this for over 20 years now and not a day that goes by where it dosn't _______ kill me inside. I have made my fare share of screw ups in my life and I own up to it. One thing I don't need is someone telling me to come clean with something I did not do. By the way I don't know you and you don't know me so why would I lie about something like this when we don't know each other.

Good morning guys,

I have a question that I’m sure has been asked on this board but I can’t seem to find information similar to mine. Hopefully I can get the answers to my problem.

Well here I go, we have all made some stupid mistakes in our past and I’m one of those idiots who knew it all at that age. I was 16 years old when I was accused of breaking into a house which to this day I still proclaim my innocence but unfortunately I nor my parents had the money at that time to hire a decent lawyer. The case finally went to court and by that time I turned 17 which made me an adult at that time, I am now 38 years old. I was placed on probation “deferred adjudication” for 5 years and only completed 3 out of the 5. Right now I have the ability to purchase a firearm but was denied my CHL and want to know if I hire a Lawyer to expunge my record with this allow my to get my CHL? I’ve asked a few lawyers but they all want some crazy amount of money just to look at the case.

Thanks to those who have taken the time to respond to my questions.
