Following in his father's footsteps, Robert Downey Jr.'s son has come out clean from his previous drug record.
Indio Downey showed up at an L.A. courthouse on March 8 morning, where a judge dismissed his cocaine case, after he submitted proof that he had successfully completed a drug diversion program, reports TMZ.com.
The dismissal comes two months after California Governor Jerry Brown gave the 50-year-old actor, a full pardon for his drug convictions.
Speaking to judge Lauren Weis Birnstein in open court, Indio said that he feels grateful for the experience he had over the last 20 months in recovery.
Adding to this, he even said that he feels "so blessed to have my life back."
Indio was arrested in June 2014 in West Hollywood when cops drove alongside the vehicle in which he was riding and noticed he was smoking something out of a pipe.
