Ok, so with an old misdemeanor conviction I am going to need court documents. Which documents do I EXACTLY need? I'm not good with all of these court papers! Do I need the paper.... 1. Says my formal charge 2. Says my agreement, like defendant will do 20 hours of community service...and so on I just want to make sure I have it all there to not delay anymore than it already will be. THANK YOU SOOO MUCH IN ADVANCE!!!!!!

Thank you so much for the reply!!!! That's inspiring for me :)

Any suggestions?

Inspiration :) Thank you

Hi, I have a quick question! Ok, so I explained my history regarding my misdemeanor in my previous post. However, I am graduating in two short months. I am sort of FREAKING out over getting a job. Everyone in my class is announcing employment! I know it is going to be VERY difficult with a misdemeanor. Also, I am aware of the bumpy road with the BON too. So....people with a misdemeanor...did you start applying to jobs prior to graduation/licensing? Did you wait until you had the license to show..."I was approved!" I'm in internship on a floor I think would be a great learning experience! They need nurses!!!!! Thank you soooo much in advance! One nervous girl

Ok, I'm not sure where to even start, so I'm going to try to keep it the most simple for you. I went through the whole, "I know everything" and "I am invincible phase" a few years ago. I had the whole tough guy boyfriend that was "cool." However, it turned into a complete nightmare. He was controlling and manipulative. I ended up getting into trouble. The trouble wasn't directly with him though. He got into trouble and ended up getting 6 years in prison. While we were waiting for his admission date into prison, we moved back to our hometown. Somehow some of his "belongings" aka "an illegal plant" got put into my car on our way home. He was going to prison, so it wasn't safe for him to have anything on him. I was "in love" and just kind of rolled the situation off my shoulders. My awesome kind of luck, I hit a road block on the highway. I knew right there, I probably just screwed up my whole life. I had a gut feeling that the "belongings" were in my car. They were. I was charged with a misdemeanor for possession of cannabis. I spoke with him on the phone, he said he was going to prison, and to take the wrap and he will take care of it. Of course, that never happened. He got sent away, still is, and I haven't talked to him in a year and a half. So, I graduate in December from a BSN program. I am currently in an externship that I was accepted into. The instructor says to put in my application now, so it is in for later. I guess my issue is...do I put an application in knowing I still have to write a letter to the BON and hope and pray everyday for a chance? Should I start gathering information to send to the board now? I am thinking about submitting an application for CNA now and see what they say about that. I realize it is two different things, but just out of curiosity. Does anyone have any past experience with this or know anyone? Please no negative comments or discouragement. I realize the uphill battle and would just like to know how to even start this hard part now.
