Portage, WA: RAP SHEET EXPUNGE DETAILS

A rap sheet happens whenever a person is founded guilty of a crime by a court. The criminal conviction will normally constantly remain on the individual's state rap sheet until 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 the majority of criminal misdemeanor & gross misdemeanor convictions, the time duration is normally 3 to 5 years after court probation ends and after all monetary commitments owed to the court have been totally satisfied.
