Generally speaking no because the intent to commit a violent offense is not there for involuntary manslaughter. If there is intent it would change to voluntary to outright murder. It would depend on the facts.

It depends on what purpose you're asking... If you're asking because of the new expungement law, the problem is that involuntary manslaughter is a Class F, and so you would not be eligible for an expungement.
