The challenge
This case carried a stack of charges from a single incident: a Class 4 Felony Dangerous Drug count, a Class 5 Felony Aggravated Assault, a Class 6 Felony Resisting Arrest, a Class 6 Felony Drug Paraphernalia, and a Class 1 Misdemeanor DUI. Each count sits on the record independently and triggers its own set of consequences. The felony counts trigger firearm restrictions, employment screens, and licensing barriers.
The client completed every term of the sentence across every count. The active stack of convictions was the last barrier between the client and a clean future. ARS § 13-905 was the path through it, and the application package included a firearm rights restoration request under § 13-905(D) in the same filing.
What we did
Future First filed the Application to Set Aside under ARS § 13-905 in Maricopa County Superior Court. The application covered every count in the case, including the Class 4 Felony Dangerous Drug count, the Class 5 Felony Aggravated Assault, the Class 6 Felony Resisting Arrest, the Class 6 Felony Drug Paraphernalia, and the Class 1 Misdemeanor DUI. The package documented full sentence completion, absolute discharge, the statutory factors the court weighs under § 13-905(A), and the firearm rights restoration request under § 13-905(D).
Multi-count felony cases require the court to consider each count under the § 13-905 factors. The firm built the package so the analysis worked cleanly across every count. The court took 194 days to move the application through review. The application held up at every step and the court entered the order on the merits.
The judge signed the order. Set aside granted on every count. Firearm rights restored in the same order under § 13-905(D). Each conviction is vacated, every judgment of guilt is dismissed, and the civil disabilities lift in full.

If you have a multi-count felony case on your record
ARS § 13-905 reaches every count in a multi-count case. The court rules on each conviction separately under the statutory factors. The firm builds the application to cover every count in one filing so the court can rule on the full case at once.
Firearm rights restoration runs in the same order under § 13-905(D). For first-offense felony counts the firearm rights restoration is available alongside the set aside on every count. The application packages all requests so the court can rule on them together.
Sealing under ARS § 13-911 is the next stage. The sealing wait varies by class. The longest wait among the counts sets the wait for the case. Once the wait is satisfied, the sealing order closes public access to the entire file.
