QUESTION

How do I get marijuana possession taken off my record?

Asked on Sep 08th, 2014 on Expungements - Michigan
More details to this question:
Almost seven years ago, I was arrested for marijuana possession. I went to court and got probation, then when they were supposed to contact me, I never got a call from a probation officer. Two months later I got a job in another state, and moved but my job wants me to return there every once and awhile. How do I get this off the record or is there a statute of limitations?

Sometimes, marijuana cases are taken under 7411, a statute that allows them to come off your record. The notion that you never heard from probation may not be a good thing. The first thing you need to discover is what your record shows. Only then can you deal with getting something off your record. State of limitations has nothing to do with this discussion.

Engage an attorney and deal with it. Hopefully you might get it dismissed if you were not convicted, but I suspect that you are actually relating that there is a warrant out for you. In any case it has to be dealt with or will keep coming back to haunt you.
