    Default Possession of Alcohol Under the Legal Age

    My question involves criminal law for the state of: IOWA

    Hi, This past weekend I received a PAULA 1st offense. I saw in Iowa they just passed a new law saying that someone with a PAULA 1st offense can have the charge expunged in two years as long as I don't get into any more trouble. My question is do I just pay the fine and then come back to the issue in two years to get it expunged or is there something I have to do now so I can eventually get it expunged.

    Thanks

    -Z

    I see this, indicating that the senate is considering a bill. Did you see something indicating that it has passed? You can look for the bill and its status here.

    Hey, I did find it passed on 3/19/10 under HF 2233 http://iabar.net/displaycommon.cfm?a...articlenbr=224 Also My friend talked to the County Attorney and she said that in Iowa a Paula and MIP are different. She said that once we pay our fine the 2 year mark would start and once we wait two years all we have to do is send a letter to the courthouse asking for it to be expunged.
