Pardons

If you’re looking to restore the constitutional rights you lost as a result of your conviction, a pardon may be the answer.

A pardon is an act of forgiveness by the Governor. While it does not wipe your record or declare you innocent, a pardon does restore specific civil rights.

Why Get a Pardon?

The primary reason to pursue a pardon is to restore the civil rights you lost after a conviction. If your pardon is granted, you will regain your right to:

• Vote
• Possess firearms
• Run for, and hold, public office
• Serve on a jury

Pardons vs. Expungements vs. Commutations

Pardons are distinctly different from commutations (a reduction of your sentence) and expungements (removal of your record from public view). Simply obtaining a commutation or expunging your record won’t restore all of your rights. You may ultimately decide to pursue more than one option to achieve the maximum relief and put your past completely behind you.
