Lynnwood, WA: CRIMINAL RECORD EXPUNGE INFO

A rap sheet takes place whenever an individual is founded guilty of a criminal offense by a court. The criminal conviction will generally constantly remain on the person's state rap sheet till a legal motion (demand) to vacate conviction is brought under RCW 9.96.060 prior to the exact same court after a particular time period. For most 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 must not be any new criminal convictions/ charges/ arrests given that the conviction sought to be vacated. If all these prerequisites are fulfilled, most community & district courts will generally grant motions to vacate a criminal conviction. That results in the person no longer having a criminal record for that specific conviction.

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

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