What it does
Existing law provides that every defendant convicted of specified misdemeanors and not granted probation shall, under specified conditions, be permitted by the court to withdraw his or her plea of guilty or nolo contendere and enter a plea of not guilty and the court shall dismiss the accusatory pleading against the defendant. Existing law also authorizes the court to set aside any guilty verdict after trial against the defendant, under those same conditions. In either case, existing law releases the defendant, except as specified, from all penalties and disabilities resulting from the offense of which he or she has been convicted.
