What does non conviction mean on a felony charge?

A non-conviction on a felony charge means that the defendant was not found guilty of the crime. This can occur through various outcomes, such as a dismissal of the charges, an acquittal at trial, or a plea deal that results in no conviction. It indicates that there was insufficient evidence for a conviction or that the legal process did not result in a guilty verdict. A non-conviction typically does not carry the same legal penalties as a conviction.
