    Unhappy Class B Misdemeanor in Texas

    12 years agao I was convicted for solicitation. I did not even get to plead not guility in Houston they take you to jail and was sentenced to 5 days in jail. This is coming up on my background check for a good job as a Class B Misdemenor. You cannot expunge if convicted correct? Is there anyhting I can do to not have this come up on my background. I had accepted a ride from an under cover cop. He solicited me and I said I only wanted a ride. They still arrested me and said I accepted his offer and I did not. I moved from Houston because I did not want this embarassment. I am not happy about this but did not think it would hurt me as it is a misdemenor. But it is coming up now on job background checks. Is there anything I can do to hide this embarassment?

    If you were convicted but did not go to trial, you had to have entered a guilty plea.

    Unhappy Re: Class B Misdemeanor in Texas

    I plead guilty for a lesser charge. I listened to my lawyer who said it was his word against mine. I guess I should have fought but I jsut wanted it gone. I did not know that they would put this on my background. Is there anything I can do?

    Why do you want it expunged?

    Do you have any reason?

    You can't expunge a conviction for a Class B misdemeanor unless you first obtain a pardon.
