Description
The Legislature has provided more than one means by which, after the sentence is served, a convicted felon may ask the Governor for a pardon, and may thereby seek release from certain civil disabilities attending the conviction. One such statutory procedure appears in Penal Code section 4852.01 et seq., concerning "certificates of rehabilitation" in the superior court. *fn1 A convicted felon can request a certificate of rehabilitation, and the superior court may issue such an order, upon a compelling showing of post-sentence reform. If granted, the certificate of rehabilitation serves as an automatic application and judicial recommendation for a gubernatorial pardon in the particular case.
