Edmonds, WA: CRIMINAL RECORD EXPUNGE INFO

A criminal record happens whenever an individual is convicted of a criminal offense by a court. The criminal conviction will normally always stay on the individual's state criminal record till a legal movement (demand) to vacate conviction is brought under RCW 9.96.060 before the very same court after a certain time period. For the majority of criminal misdemeanor & gross misdemeanor convictions, the time duration is normally 3 to 5 years after court probation ends and after all financial commitments owed to the court have been fully satisfied. And there should not be any new criminal convictions/ charges/ arrests because the conviction sought to be vacated. If all these preconditions are met, the majority of local & district courts will normally grant motions to vacate a criminal conviction. That leads to the individual no longer having a rap sheet for that particular conviction.

An individual whose criminal conviction is vacated may legally mention on future task applications that he/she has never had a rap sheet.

Under RCW 9.96.060, an individual is limited to just one trip of a misdemeanor criminal conviction. Convictions for DUIs and particular misdemeanor sex criminal activities can not be vacated.

Nonconviction data (cops arrest records, jail booking records, finger prints/ images (mugshots) records, etc) occur whenever an individual is arrested/jailed however no criminal charges are ever submitted in court. Such nonconviction data are held by Washington State law enforcement agencies for many years. Regional jailing cops agencies & the Washington State Patrol Criminal History Area in Olympia, WA both keep nonconviction data.

Under RCW 10.97.060 and WAC 446-16-025, individuals may make written demands to expunge/delete such cops nonconviction data. These demands should be made to both the regional jailing cops firm and to the Washington State Patrol Criminal History Area in Olympia, WA. Such demands will normally be approved if there have been no charges within two years of the nonconviction data sought to be erased, and over 3 years have passed because the date of the old arrest
