Hello everyone,
After searching the web and the forum, I was not able to get a clear determination, so I'd figure that I ask. In 1994, I was convicted of "Theft by Deception" in New Jersey and an embezzlement conviction of the same crime in Rhode Island. Since then, I served my time (18 months on a 5 year stip) and have not been in any trouble with the law ever since. I also had both convictions expunged and have the copy of both expungement orders.
I plan on applying for my GWC in Cobb Co. and would like to know who to handle question #5, "Have you ever been convicted of or pled guilty to any felony offense or any offense punishable by a term of imprisonment over one year, including a conviction by a court-martial under the Uniform Code of Military Justice for an offense which would constitute a felony?........"
In NJ, the question is clear on the application when applying because in parenthesis, it asks if you have been convicted of a felony, but in parenthesis, it says, "Except for pardoned and expunged records). So, in that state, one can answer, "No" in my case. In Rhode Island, the same applies. However, how would I handle that question here in GA? I'm all about limiting any difficulties in any filing, and I welcome any insight to this question.
Thanks!
