Many state statutes for DUI expungement require that the defendant plead guilty.
If you plead not-guilty and get convicted, some states don't allow the crime to be expunged.
Same goes for many non-adjudication statutes.
I see, that would be a tricky call, I think I would be inclined to go down fighting and definitely not trust any verbal assurance/agreement from any prosecutor or judge

Yes you need an attorney to file in your behalf, and yes $2,000 is pretty damn expensive. They should run more like $1,100.00 I would shop around before paying that.

I wouldn't say texting at a light while stopped is texting and driving though.

Let me ask this:
Got a dwi in 2004 (plead article 894) and met all requirements. Nothing other than speeding tickets since.
Should I go the process of getting it expunged for job application purposes? Or is it going to be there not matter what?
I've heard both sides of this....never have gotten a clear answer.

I sat in on discussions for the DUI bill here in MS and I vehemently opposed the requirement. They were adamant about it.

No shite.
Just like a study done with drivers at a .08 level doesn't reflect the impairment of someone who is at a .20. (Not sure what this dude's kid blew... just saying that there are multiple variables.)

Didn't read the thread but Art 894 is a one time thing that keeps the conviction off your driving record for insurance purposes I think, google it.
Getting a conviction expunged is a different animal. All fines and terms of the sentence (probation, fines and cost) have to be satisfied and the DA has to not oppose.
DWI conviction? prolly wont happen given the outrage over drunk driving these days.

What about driving after three beers and being .08, and texting your buddies about the strip club while driving 75 on the interstate?

Artie was comparing that to driving after drinking. Not a good comparison. Just pointing it out, Leroy.

Exactly my point and stated by someone else above. Too many factors for the blanket statement.

Wrong.

If you haven't paid your fines and costs you are still on probation, so this is wrong.

Lol, this is just brainless.

The State Police couldn't find it. I had to get a letter from the Parish Courthouse saying they didn't have a record of it either. Because I told them on my application that I had one.

You can't have convictions expunged in Louisiana. Pleading under Art. 894 is not a conviction if you meet all terms of the plea.

I think you actually plead no contest (nolo contender) or something like that.
