CRIMINAL RECORD REMOVAL INFORMATION

A criminal record occurs whenever a person is convicted of a criminal offense by a court. The criminal conviction then always remains on the person's official Washington State criminal record unless a legal motion (request) to vacate (remove) the conviction is brought under RCW 9.96.060 before the same court after a certain time period has elapsed. For most criminal misdemeanor & gross misdemeanor convictions, the time period is usually 3 to 5 years after either the conviction date or the end of the court probation period. And after all financial obligations owed to the court have been fully satisfied. There must not be any new criminal convictions, charges or arrests since the conviction sought to be vacated. If all these preconditions are met, most municipal & district courts will usually grant motions to vacate a criminal conviction. That results in the person no longer having a criminal record for that particular conviction. 

A person whose criminal conviction is vacated may lawfully state on future job and housing applications that he/she has never had a criminal record.

Under Washington State RCW 9.96.060, almost all convictions for misdemeanor and gross misdemeanors can be vacated. However, convictions for DUIs and certain misdemeanor sex crimes cannot be vacated. 

POLICE ARREST RECORD / NON-CONVICTION DATA REMOVAL INFORMATION 

Police non-conviction data (police arrest records, jail booking records, fingerprints, photos (mugshots), etc. occurs whenever a person is arrested/jailed but no criminal charges are ever filed in court. Or when any filed criminal charge is quickly dismissed.  Such non-conviction data is held by Washington State law enforcement indefinitely.  Both local arresting police agencies in Lake Stevens, WA & the Washington State Patrol Criminal History Section in Olympia, WA retain this non-conviction data.
