My question involves expungements or pardons for the state of: Texas
ok so on 06/21/2010 i was arrested and spent one night in jail for class c misdemeanor assault : intimidation attached with family violence for to much screaming when me and fiance(then gf) were arguing. didn't hit her. since then we broke up(next day actually) then a few months later i proved to her that i'd changed and stuff and we got back together and things have been perfect since(we got back together February of 2011 and other than my mom and neither of us being able to get a job perfect). anyways i was trying to join the army but i found out that with a family violence or domestic violence conviction i can't join because i can't possess a firearm.
i spent one night in jail, mom payed $178, and on my papers it says if i show up i'll go to court. if i don't and a judgement of conviction is entered then my $178 would be used to pay for court costs and all that. and if i didn't show up i would enter a plea of nolo contendere and forfeit trial by jury. well i didn't show back up. and idk what happened at all. i really want to join the Army, something i've thought about doing for years. is there any way to get this taken care of? expungement or anything.
can i get clear answers please, i can never get a clear defined answers please. it was in Waco, TX( well Bellmead, i don't live there) can i call their court and find out or what? idk what to do, i'm so worried about this.
