| | Felon - definition of Felon in Encyclopedia |
 | | This means that in practice, federal felons cannot have their records expunged, unlike those convicted of felonies in state courts. | | | Theoretically, federal law allows persons convicted of felonies in a federal United States district court to apply to have their record expunged. | | | In addition, some states consider a felony conviction to be grounds for an uncontested divorce. |

| | We vacate the trial court's judgment on the felonious marijuana possession conviction (00 CRS 83048), and remand to the trial court for resentencing as upon a verdict of guilty of simple possession of marijuana under G.S. 90-95(a)(3). | | | Accordingly, we conclude that the trial court erred in ordering the forfeiture of the $709 seized from defendant's person at the time of his arrest, where he was not convicted under G.S. § 90-95(a)(1) of possessing the marijuana or the cocaine with the intent to sell and deliver it. | | | In this case, defendant contends that this Court's holding in Gilmore requires that his habitual felon conviction be reversed. |
