    Default Conditional Discharge

    My question involves expungements or pardons for the state of: New Mexico.

    I was convicted of two F4 felonies in NEW Mexico. Under guidance of my public defender I thought i was pleading out to misdemeanors and was shocked when I applied for a recent employment opportunity to learn about these. I was not given the job due to these on my background check. My question is: my terms of release fell under "conditional discharge" in which I completed the three years of probation and the case is done. Can these now be considered "spent"? Can I get these removed from my record?

    Default Re: Conditional Discharge

    Can these now be considered "spent"?
    Yes. Conditional discharge in NM is a one time only chance to get out of a felony conviction. At the end of your probation, the charges should have been dismissed and no conviction should be present. If this has not happened, you'll need to discuss your options with an attorney.

    Can I get these removed from my record?
    Possibly. This will need to be addressed by your attorney.
