This form is used by people who want to ask the court to reduce or dismiss a criminal conviction under California's Proposition 47, which allows certain drug and property crime convictions to be reduced to misdemeanors. Someone would need this form if they have a prior felony conviction for crimes like shoplifting, drug possession, or theft and want to petition the court to reduce that conviction so it no longer counts as a serious felony on their record.
This form must be printed and filled by hand, or opened in Adobe Acrobat.
