What Is A Conviction? What Is Not A Conviction?
A conviction is when you have plead “guilty” or been found “guilty” by either a judge or a jury. A conviction would appear as a “G” on your CORI. Convictions include the following dispositions: guilty-filed, guilty-probation, guilty suspended sentence, guilty committed. A non-conviction is any disposition that is not a guilty. Non-convictions include dismissals, pretrial probations, and charges that were filed without a change of plea, continued without a finding or nolle prosequi.
