Eastland, WA: RAP SHEET EXPUNGE DETAILS

A rap sheet takes place whenever an individual is convicted of a criminal offense by a court. The criminal conviction will generally always stay on the individual's state rap sheet up until a legal movement (request) to vacate conviction is brought under RCW 9.96.060 prior to the same court after a particular time period. For many criminal misdemeanor & gross misdemeanor convictions, the time period is generally 3 to 5 years after court probation ends and after all financial obligations owed to the court have been completely satisfied. And there need to not be any new criminal convictions/ charges/ arrests considering that the conviction looked for to be vacated. If all these preconditions are satisfied, many community & district courts will generally grant movements to vacate a criminal conviction. That results in the individual no longer having a criminal record for that specific conviction.

A person whose criminal conviction is vacated might lawfully mention on future job applications that he/she has never had a criminal record.

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

Nonconviction data (police arrest records, jail booking records, fingerprints/ images (mugshots) records, etc) take place 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 several years. Local arresting police agencies & the Washington State Patrol Criminal History Area in Olympia, WA both maintain nonconviction data.

Under RCW 10.97.060 and WAC 446-16-025, persons might make written requests to expunge/delete such police nonconviction data. These requests need to be made to both the local arresting police company and to the Washington State Patrol Criminal History Area in Olympia, WA. Such requests will generally be approved if there have been no charges within two years of the nonconviction data looked for to be deleted, and over 3 years have passed considering that the date of the old arrest
