Wabash, WA: CRIMINAL RECORD EXPUNGE INFO

A rap sheet occurs whenever an individual is convicted of a crime by a court. The criminal conviction will typically constantly remain on the person's state criminal record up until a legal movement (demand) to vacate conviction is brought under RCW 9.96.060 before the same court after a specific time 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 responsibilities owed to the court have been fully satisfied. And there need to not be any brand-new criminal convictions/ charges/ arrests since the conviction looked for to be vacated. If all these prerequisites are met, many local & district courts will typically approve movements to vacate a criminal conviction. That results in the person no longer having a criminal record for that specific conviction.

A person whose criminal conviction is vacated may lawfully mention on future task applications that he/she has never had a criminal record.

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 crimes can not be vacated.
