White, WA: CRIMINAL RECORD EXPUNGE INFO

A rap sheet takes place whenever an individual is convicted of a crime by a court. The criminal conviction will generally constantly remain on the person's state rap sheet up until a legal movement (request) to vacate conviction is brought under RCW 9.96.060 prior to the very same court after a certain time period. For most criminal misdemeanor & gross misdemeanor convictions, the time period is generally 3 to 5 years after court probation ends and after all financial commitments owed to the court have been fully pleased. And there should not be any brand-new criminal convictions/ charges/ arrests because the conviction looked for to be vacated. If all these preconditions are fulfilled, most community & district courts will generally grant movements to vacate a criminal conviction. That leads to the person no longer having a criminal record for that specific conviction.

An individual whose criminal conviction is vacated might legally state on future job applications that he/she has never ever had a criminal record.

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