Monroe, WA: CRIMINAL RECORD EXPUNGE INFO

The criminal conviction will normally always remain on the person's state rap sheet up until a legal motion (request) to vacate conviction is brought under RCW 9.96.060 prior to the exact same court after a specific period. For the majority of criminal misdemeanor & gross misdemeanor convictions, the time period is normally 3 to 5 years after court probation ends and after all monetary responsibilities owed to the court have been completely pleased. And there need to not be any new criminal convictions/ charges/ arrests because the conviction looked for to be vacated.
