My question involves criminal records for the state of: Ohio
I have a minor misdemeanor already for possession of marijuana. I have never had this expunged. I didn't think I needed to as I knew it created no criminal record. I payed my fine for the incident and went on. (I never received a license suspension for the incident, which I thought was mandatory)
2.5 years later now and I received a 4th degree misdemeanor for paraphernalia possession.
Will my MM be seen by the courts? If so, will it effect this new charge substantially? Example: Inability to have these expunged?
