While having a conviction or plea of guilty expunged from your record is one of the great second chances provided by our criminal justice system, it is not always an available option. In Mississippi not only are misdemeanors eligible to be expunged, but some felonies are as well. However, there is a very limited number of felonies which may be expunged, they include: shoplifting, larceny, possession of controlled substances, malicious mischief, bad check offenses, and false pretenses. Some DUI offenses can also be expunged.
