Stillwater, WA: CRIMINAL RECORD EXPUNGE INFO

A rap sheet happens whenever an individual is founded guilty of a criminal offense by a court. The criminal conviction will typically 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 before the very same court after a particular time period. For the majority of criminal misdemeanor & gross misdemeanor convictions, the time duration is typically 3 to 5 years after court probation ends and after all financial responsibilities owed to the court have actually been completely satisfied. And there must not be any brand-new criminal convictions/ charges/ arrests since the conviction looked for to be vacated. If all these prerequisites are satisfied, the majority of community & district courts will typically grant motions to vacate a criminal conviction. That results in the person no longer having a rap sheet for that particular conviction.

An individual whose criminal conviction is vacated may legally specify on future job applications that he/she has never had a rap sheet.

Under RCW 9.96.060, an individual is restricted to only one getaway of a misdemeanor criminal conviction. Convictions for DUIs and certain misdemeanor sex criminal offenses can not be vacated.
