More details to this question:
When I was 18, I was charged with grand theft. I stole three rings that were over $1000. I have goals for the future and don’t want this to get in the way.

YES if it's been at least five years and your record is clean. Otherwise NO.

In Michigan, if this is your only offense, you can apply for an expungement 6 years after your conviction or release from jail.

You can expunge felonies if you are eligible for expungement. Eligibility is based on a number of factors including total number of offenses, time from the offense, etc. You should contact an expungement attorney for a consultation.
