      I think it’s five years later you can appeal, and almost all of them get approved.

      Like, if you got a DUI or popped on a drug test, you can probably get it changed. It’s a small hassle, but there’s no reason not to fill out the paperwork

      This is like the $150 fine that the Commonwealth of KY will fine you if you detonate a nuclear device within city limits. They’re just getting the pennies they think they might get out of you when the federal government is done with you.
