Blackch3rry: did you go through Pretrial Program? Bc I took a class in order to get the case discharged? Thank you!!

From my lawyer recently when asking the final verdict although I can probably find in all my paperwork: If they see anything, it would say expunged. From what I recall you were not arrested but given a notice to appear. You never entered a plea. You were never convicted. You were charged by the police, but not the state attorney's office My question: So I am not guilty and my case was dismissed as final verdict? Her answer: correct!

So weird bc my lawyer had told me to disclose it to the BON and that's why I was asking these questions

Yes that puts my worries away are you also in florida? And did did you atleast send documents and disclose that it would show up?

Have checked with the board and I will have to disclose it. And no my slate was no wiped clean, I was never charged or convicted once I was taken to court, so I was arrested (notice to appear) from cops meaning they were charging me and then I was able to dismiss it just a lot of steps I'll have to go through but I'm hoping it's all worthwhile and I can get my license

Blackch3rry what do you mean by convicted? I was given a notice to appear and got fingerprinted and had to go to court to get the intervention and then have the case closed

Hello I have a year left of nursing school and was wondering if any recent graduates have had a record and still went through to the BON for approval and how that worked out. Steps, and wait time. What all was done. How it turned out. What are the chances of a nurse with a record. I just had a stupid mistake. Got accused of petty theft misdemeanor. I hired a lawyer. We pleaded not guilty, got into a pretrial intervention program completed a class and paid money and got the case closed. Then the case was expunged in less than 6 months. What are the chances? And any experience from anyone? Please and thank you in advance for all help.
