He is and always will be a convicted felon from the moment is is convicted unless he is pardoned.

He will only be a convict whle is is serving his sentence.

If he lives long enough to finish his sentence he won't be a convict anymore, but will still be a convicted felon.

Then he'll be a pardoned felon

No, then he will have been pardoned and no longer a felon (assuming every felony is pardoned)

A pardon is an admission of guilt.
