Ridgecrest, WA: CRIMINAL RECORD EXPUNGE INFORMATION

A rap sheet takes place whenever a person is convicted of a criminal offense by a court. The criminal conviction will usually always remain on the person's state criminal record until a legal motion (request) to vacate conviction is brought under RCW 9.96.060 before the very same court after a specific period. For the majority of criminal misdemeanor & gross misdemeanor convictions, the time duration is usually 3 to 5 years after court probation ends and after all monetary responsibilities owed to the court have been completely satisfied. And there should not be any brand-new criminal convictions/ charges/ arrests considering that the conviction sought to be vacated. If all these preconditions are met, the majority of community & district courts will usually give motions to vacate a criminal conviction. That leads to the person no longer having a criminal record for that specific conviction.

Nonconviction information (cops arrest records, prison booking records, fingerprints/ images (mugshots) records, etc) take place whenever a person is arrested/jailed but no criminal charges are ever submitted in court. Such nonconviction information are held by Washington State law enforcement agencies for many years. Local detaining cops firms & the Washington State Patrol Criminal History Area in Olympia, WA both retain nonconviction information.

Under RCW 10.97.060 and WAC 446-16-025, persons may make written requests to expunge/delete such cops nonconviction information. These requests should be made to both the regional detaining cops company and to the Washington State Patrol Criminal History Area in Olympia, WA. Such requests will usually be granted if there have been no charges within two years of the nonconviction information sought to be deleted, and over 3 years have passed considering that the date of the old arrest
