The "civil rights restored" exemption from enhanced sentencing under the Armed Career Criminal Act (ACCA), contained in 18 U.S.C. section 921(a)(20), does not cover the case of an offender who retained civil rights at all times, and whose legal status, postconviction, remained in all respects unaltered by any state dispensation.
