Can I get a felony expunged or sealed

Dear Cynthia: As long as you did not commit serious physical harm against the police officer, then yes, you can get both the assault on peace officer and resisting arrest charge expunged. The law in Ohio was recently amended to allow a person to seal/expunge two misdemeanor violations or one felony and one misdemeanor violation (with a few exceptions).  I am basing my answer on today's expungement statute because it should apply even though your crimes occurred in 1982. That is, the expungement statute in effect at the time you file your application governs.  Even without the change in the law, as long as both charges arose out of the same incident, then they count as one conviction for purposes of expungement. Assault on a peace officer can be sealed and, since you didn't serve time in prison, then you must not have caused serious physical harm to the officer. That means you are eligible to have it sealed. Resisting arrest is a misdemeanor of the second degree as long as you didn't cause physical harm to the police officer or brandish a deadly weapon and recklessly cause harm to the officer. Provided that it is the former, you can also expuge the resisting arrest charge. A minor misdemeanor speeding violation does not count as a prior conviction.
