Setting Aside Criminal Convictions | Gary Rohlwing
January 8, 2019 Posted in Felonies
A.R.S. § 13-907(A) provides that a person who has been convicted of a criminal offence may apply to the judge to have the judgment of guilt set aside. If the judge grants the application, the accusations or information are dismissed and the person is released from all penalties and disabilities resulting from the conviction except those imposed by the Arizona Department of Transportation and Arizona Game and Fish Commission according to A.R.S. § 13-907(C). The person’s right to possess a gun or firearm is restored unless he or she was convicted of a serious offence as defined by A.R.S. § 13-706. See A.R.S. § 13-907(D).
The criminal conviction involved a dangerous offence defined in A.R.S. § 13-105(13) as an offence involving the discharge, use or threatening exhibition of a deadly weapon or dangerous instrument or the intentional or knowing infliction of serious physical injury on another person.
The criminal conviction concerned a local city ordinance relating to stopping, standing or operation of a vehicle in violation of A.R.S. § 28-3473 which makes it a misdemeanour to drive on a suspended license.
The criminal conviction concerned a violation of Title 28, chapter 3, except a violation of A.R.S. § 28-693 or any local ordinance relating to the same subject matter as A.R.S. § 28-693. Title 28, chapter 3 deals with traffic and vehicle regulation which are usually civil offences. A.R.S. § 28-693 prohibits reckless driving.
