I am a little confused when it comes to listing convictions. I have received an MIP (minor in possession of alcohol) but took a diversion course. My question is, do I need to list it, I am not sure if taking the diversion course caused it to be expunged or sealed. The only thing I know is that the judge told me it would take it "off my record" if I took the diversion course. If anyone can help me out a little bit I could finish this last section. Here are the instructions from my background packet referring to this.
"Completing item 35: You must list the arrests and/or convictions if you have received a release (per Section 144.050 of the Oregon Criminal Code) or pardon (per Section 144.640 of the Oregon Criminal Code). However, you need not list an arrest and/or conviction when the record of such an incident has been sealed in accordance with Criminal Code Section 137.225, or if your record has been expunged."
