Lynnwood, WA: RAP SHEET EXPUNGE INFO

A rap sheet takes place whenever an individual is convicted of a crime by a court. The criminal conviction will generally always stay on the individual's state criminal record till a legal motion (request) to vacate conviction is brought under RCW 9.96.060 prior to the exact same court after a specific time period. For a lot of criminal misdemeanor & gross misdemeanor convictions, the time duration is generally 3 to 5 years after court probation ends and after all financial commitments owed to the court have been totally 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 fulfilled, a lot of municipal & district courts will generally approve motions to vacate a criminal conviction. That results in the individual no longer having a rap sheet for that specific conviction.

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

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