Hartford, WA: CRIMINAL RECORD EXPUNGE INFO

A criminal record occurs whenever an individual is founded guilty of a crime by a court. The criminal conviction will usually constantly remain on the person's state criminal record until a legal motion (demand) to vacate conviction is brought under RCW 9.96.060 before the very same court after a specific period. For most criminal misdemeanor & gross misdemeanor convictions, the time period is usually 3 to 5 years after court probation ends and after all financial responsibilities owed to the court have been totally pleased. And there must not be any new criminal convictions/ charges/ arrests since the conviction sought to be vacated. If all these preconditions are met, most local & district courts will usually grant movements to vacate a criminal conviction. That results in the person no longer having a criminal record for that specific conviction.

Nonconviction data (police arrest records, jail booking records, fingerprints/ images (mugshots) records, etc) occur whenever an individual is arrested/jailed but no criminal charges are ever submitted in court. Such nonconviction data are held by Washington State police for several years. Local jailing police agencies & the Washington State Patrol Criminal History Area in Olympia, WA both retain nonconviction data.

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