Depending on the circumstances, expungement may be possible. In Michigan, adult criminal convictions may be expunged or removed if:
They aren't federal convictions.
The conviction wasn't a felony or an attempted felony with a maximum sentence of life imprisonment.
It has been more than five years since the date of the conviction, your release from jail/prison, your discharge from parole, or your completion of probation, whichever came more recently. The time period is seven years if you’re looking to have multiple felonies expunged.
You don’t have any pending criminal charges.
You haven’t had any new convictions in the relevant time period.
An experienced Lansing criminal defense attorney can help you determine whether your conviction is eligible for expungement and walk you through the process.
