I have a prblem and I don't know what to do. I was arrested for DUI last year in Tennessee. The charge was dropped to misdemeanor Reckless Endangerment. Im close to applying for nursing school and they do background checks. I paid to have one done myself and it came back as a DUI. What I want to know is can I have this (the misdemeanor) expunged from my record? Or will I just have to give up on nursing school? My lawyer told me I could have this charge expunged when I first met with him. I'm being told different things by different people. I'm so confused and I don't want to pay for another lawyer and come out with the same results.
