old felony charges (30 yrs)

Has anyone out there had an ajudication for a felony in the state of texas in 1980? Did adjudication of felonies exist in 1980? If so, how did you do it? I was arrested in 1980 for Burglery, I took a plea bargain to get out of jail and return to my home town in Alabama. In my conditions of probation, it states that "... at the end of your probation term, if you are not released early as stated above, Tx court may set aside the verdict and set aside the indictment, thereby releasing the probationer of all penalties and disabilities for which he was convicted. Having the effects of completely restoring your civil rights. Therefore you have a goal to work toward as the whole object of probation is to help you resume a normal, productive life in american Society." Can I reverse my plea and have this done?

Im confused as to what you are asking. If you are asking if you can go back to court and have a 'redo', the answer is NO. Once your plea is entered and your sentenced handed down, and your time served, or not served as the case my be, you cannot change a plea in that sense.

What you quoted above is interesting, but what comes BEFORE that sentence ( the sentence that references 'above') is missing from your posting. I guess I don't understand your question entirely--if your paperwork says you can yada yada yada, why do you need to change your plea ( even if you could ) to take advantage of what the paper says you are afforded as incentive to adhere to your probation stipulations?

Perhaps I am misunderstanding what you are asking.
