My boyfriend can't get a job because of a prior felony when he was 19. Any suggestions?
Q. He is now 26 and i am pregnant. He has been trying but no one will give him a chance. The charge was for a fight he got into when he was younger and he has matured greatly since then. We just moved to Illinois from California and i'm starting to loose hope. Has anyone been hired with a felony on their record?
Asked by Maren M - Tue Jul 22 01:23:31 2008 - - 8 Answers - 0 Comments
A. If he hasn't been in any other trouble, he can try to have his felony reduced to a misdemeanor and then have it expunged. We do that sometimes in our courts, here in CA. He's have to go back to Court, in the county where he was on probation, and request this. He can contact the Probation Department for that county... talk to his former probation officer... and find out what the rules are on getting the record expunged. It'll require that he did everything he was supposed to do while on probation, including paying the fines/fees... and that a certain amount of time has passed since probation terminated... with no new offenses. Good luck to you!

Q. Can a doctor get licensed with prior felony or midemeanor charges?
Asked by jojobear - Thu May 11 17:02:24 2006 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments
A. If you have a felony conviction you automatically lose your medical license in most states. You also cannot apply for a medical license with a felony conviction on your record. In many states, the nature of the misdemeanor will determine whether you can get a medical license. For example, if you have a misdemeanor conviction for illegal trafficking of prescription drugs you probably won't be able to get a license. On the other hand, a misdemeanor conviction for smoking in a public place probably wouldn't cause a problem. Medical licensing boards vary from state to state, so if you have a specific circumstance, you should probably contact the licensing board in your home state.

What happens if I move to a neighboring county after a felony warrant has been issued in my prior county?
Q. I recently found out I had a felony warrant, during this time I moved to a neighboring county due to a job relocation. I have had friends and relatives inform me of local police asking for my whereabouts, and that I should turn myself in. Obviously, I cannot afford the time nor the price by turning myself in. What can police do now?
Asked by REVXUS - Tue Apr 22 03:38:34 2008 - - 7 Answers - 0 Comments
A. Two things will happen. One, the other county has listed your warrant on the State records system and possibly with NCIC, a national data base. Any routine query by an officer will bring up the warrant information. So, the first time you get pulled over for a traffic violation, you get busted for the warrant. Two, someone in the other county will rat you out eventually and you will be arrested at your home or new job. Get yourself a lawyer and try to arrange something with the other county or just turn yourself in.

A. I am not sure about FL, but yes this can be done. If you fall under a statute of Criminal Habitual Offender then there can be increased penalties. In Wisconsin 1 felony conviction or 3 misdemeanors charges makes you a habitual offender and all charges after that are considered felony and increases the penalties 3 times. Say a 1 year maximum jail term will be increased to 3 years.

A. It could be charged as a felony if he was in the past convicted and committed to a penal institution (jail or prison) for a theft or fraud offense (Pen C 666 requires such custody in addition to a conviction). Additionally, the prosecutor is not limited in filing to the charge for which the police officer made an arrest, so this might be a grand theft or burglary charge now.
