Timberlane, WA: RAP SHEET EXPUNGE INFORMATION

A rap sheet occurs whenever a person is convicted of a criminal offense by a court. The criminal conviction will typically constantly remain on the person's state criminal record until a legal motion (request) to vacate conviction is brought under RCW 9.96.060 prior to the very same court after a specific period. For many criminal misdemeanor & gross misdemeanor convictions, the time period is typically 3 to 5 years after court probation ends and after all monetary obligations owed to the court have actually been totally satisfied. And there should not be any new criminal convictions/ charges/ arrests considering that the conviction sought to be vacated. If all these prerequisites are met, many community & district courts will typically approve movements to vacate a criminal conviction. That leads to the person no longer having a rap sheet for that specific conviction.

A person whose criminal conviction is vacated might legally state on future task applications that he/she has never ever had a rap sheet.
