Dismissal of convictions: probation.
Summary
Existing law allows a person convicted of a criminal offense who has successfully completed the term of probation to petition the court to withdraw their plea of guilty or nolo contendere and enter a plea of not guilty or, if convicted after a plea of not guilty, petition the court to set aside the verdict of guilty and dismiss the accusatory pleading, except as specified. Under existing law, a person granted relief pursuant to these provisions shall be released from all penalties and disabilities resulting from the offense, except as specified. This bill would make technical, nonsubstantive changes to those provisions.
