    The pardon would come from the
    govna. You would have to apply there.
    As far as i learnd here there are
    different classes of felonys. A
    through F I believe. Some are not
    pardonable. You say you lost the right
    to serve on a jury? I have a
    juvinile Felony. I wish some one would
    tell that to some one here in joisey.
    I must get called once a year! But yey
    i almost lost a job because of it. And
    i was denied a purchase permit to buy
    a fireaem. Yeah it makes it all very
    clear you see!
