What is an Expunction?
An expunction is the removal of the records of a criminal arrest. Expunctions are not available to everyone, but for those who are eligible it will completely erase a criminal record.

Record Expunction
An individual's criminal record may be used by many agencies such as schools, employers, apartment managers, credit bureaus, and government agencies, which may result in these agencies denying college acceptances, employment, apartment rentals, credit, and other necessities. Getting a record expunction eliminates these negative consequences. If you have been involved in a case that was dismissed, declined, or deemed not guilty, you are eligible for a record expunction. Even though your case was dismissed or you were found not guilty, the fact that you were arrested and charged will remain as a public record until an expunction removes it.
Non-disclosure Order
A non-disclosure petition will prevent your record from being made available to the public as well. If you have completed a deferred adjudication probation, you may be eligible for a non-disclosure order that prevents all government agencies from accessing your criminal record. Each non-disclosure petition is judged independently and based on its own merit.
