    Question Effect of a Dismissal After Probation

    Hi,
    I was caught for retail fraud third degree in MICHIGAN.
    I have completed my 1yr probation successfully,with 20hrs of community service n life adjustment therapy.
    My case was under deferred judgement.Now what i understand from the definition of deferred judgement is that" if the specified probation period is completed successfully,all charges will be dismissed."
    If this is true, do i still have to apply for EXPUNGEMENT?

    If the charges are dismissed, can i still have problems in pursuing a carrier in health medicine?

    Planning to apply for visitor's visa for CANADA n Mexico, the visa form asks"ever convicted of any criminal charge" what shd be my answer?

    If some federal agencies do a background check for me for immigration purposes, will this charge be visible?

    Default Re: Effect of a Dismissal After Probation

    As I read the statutes, you can't expunge the court record as there is no conviction, and you can't seek the destruction of your arrest records or fingerprint card because you were not "found not guilty". (See MCL 28.243(8)).
