Only certain cases can be sealed (not expunged) in Colorado. They are cases where all charges have been totally dismissed (like at the end of a deferred sentence) and certain drug offenses and petty offenses. If I were guessing, I would guess in your case you accepted a "split plea" - a deferred sentence to the felony and a straight plea to the misdemeanor, with probation. In that situation the case cannot be sealed, but at the end of the deferral period the felony would have been dismissed - so you do not have a felony conviction, but it will still show up that you were arrested for a felony and that you were charged with a felony.
