Stevens, WA: RAP SHEET EXPUNGE DETAILS

A criminal record takes place whenever an individual is convicted of a crime by a court. The criminal conviction will usually always remain on the individual's state criminal record 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 time period. For a lot 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 actually been fully satisfied. And there must not be any new criminal convictions/ charges/ arrests given that the conviction looked for to be vacated. If all these prerequisites are fulfilled, a lot of community & district courts will usually give motions to vacate a criminal conviction. That results in the individual no longer having a criminal record for that specific conviction.

An individual whose criminal conviction is vacated may legally specify on future task applications that he/she has never ever had a criminal record.

Under RCW 9.96.060, an individual is limited to just one getaway of a misdemeanor criminal conviction. Convictions for DUIs and particular misdemeanor sex crimes can not be vacated.

Nonconviction data (cops arrest records, prison booking records, fingerprints/ images (mugshots) records, etc) occur whenever an individual is arrested/jailed but no criminal charges are ever filed in court. Such nonconviction data are held by Washington State law enforcement agencies for several years. Regional jailing cops companies & the Washington State Patrol Criminal History Area in Olympia, WA both maintain nonconviction data.

Under RCW 10.97.060 and WAC 446-16-025, persons may make written demands to expunge/delete such cops nonconviction data. These demands must be made to both the regional jailing cops company and to the Washington State Patrol Criminal History Area in Olympia, WA. Such demands will usually be approved if there have actually been no charges within two years of the nonconviction data looked for to be erased, and over 3 years have actually passed given that the date of the old arrest
