Ridgecrest, WA: CRIMINAL RECORD EXPUNGE DETAILS

The criminal conviction will generally always stay on the person's state rap sheet till a legal motion (demand) to vacate conviction is brought under RCW 9.96.060 before the same court after a specific time period. For most criminal misdemeanor & gross misdemeanor convictions, the time period is generally 3 to 5 years after court probation ends and after all monetary responsibilities owed to the court have been fully satisfied. And there must not be any new criminal convictions/ charges/ arrests considering that the conviction sought to be vacated.
