- Q. I was accused with battery on a police officer and it was dismissed by the courts, never convicted can I get tint?
- A: In general, a person is precluded from receiving a medical exemption for tint on a motor vehicle if they have been convicted of a violent crime or drug-related offense. At the time of requesting the exemption, a background check is usually performed, after you file an affidavit, that allows the DMV to search for convictions within those areas.

- Q. If someone skips out on felony probation involving a minor in 1997. Can he still be arrested for it now ?

- Q. in Louisiana is an article 894 only a route for expungement or does it set the conviction aside to get my license back?
- A: Hello, in general pleading guilty under 894 makes the conviction eligible to be "set aside," and eligible for expungement immediately (as opposed to the typical misdemeanor waiting period) upon completion of any sentencing requirements. However, simply completing the requirements for the conviction doesn't immediately set the ball in motion. You will need to file a motion to set aside the conviction and dismiss prosecution and motion for expungement. The 894 simply makes the offense eligible to be set aside and acts as if the conviction never occurred, upon filing the appropriate motion to do so. I would recommend contacting the attorney that assisted you with your plea or another ... Read More
