Can my felonies ever be erased?
451448
Federal law allows persons convicted of felonies in a federal United States district court to apply to have their record expunged after a certain period of time with a clean record. However, the U.S. Congress has refused to fund the federal agency mandated with handling the applications of convicted felons to have their record expunged. This means that, in practice, federal felons cannot have their records expunged. \n\nYou may also check with your local State laws.\n\nGood Luck!!!

The Governor from your State has to grant it for you. I have known of narcs getting that done to clear their records in my State. My City has a prosecutor that is a Republican felon. He was able to get the Governor to pardon him somehow, it was snitching everybody says.

If you have cleared your history, then you can't - sorry. Even a system restore won't bring them back from memory

If it is a juvenile conviction, there are quite a few options. They are laid out in the first site below. If it is an adult conviction, only certain felonies can be expunged and only after 3 years. The exact details are in the second site.

Technically it can. Everything that you delete from your hard drive is still there until it is overwritten with new data. You can use track-erasing software found easily for free on the internet. Here is a website that hosts several of these applications. Some are free and some are shareware. I haven't used any of them so I can't tell you which one is best but you can check them out.

The appeal must be won.  The court holds the conviction addullted, void, overturned as if it no longer exists.  Expungement of the records is another matter and that requires more legal work.  Even if that were to be granted, there is always a paper trail and just, for example, the fact that someone was arrested in the first place will always be part of that trail.  It is practically impossible to get rid of all of the record, even with a court order.

It appears that in Wisconsin, expungements are limited to certain offenses for offenders under the age of 17 or 21, depending on the conviction.  If you carried out a sentence, and it was not dismissed, then it does not look like you can remove that from your record.  I've included a link to a brochure that summarizes Wisconsin law and gives contact information for their Department of Justice.  Contact them to verify that there are no alternative measures you can take.

If you have it expunged, then all records are erased. There is no more record on you that can be retrieved by any one.

Hello:\n\nFirst, you'll have to find out if your state offers expungment, and then you'll have to find out if you fit the criteria.  If you do, you'll have to file a motion, most likely in the county where the conviction occurred.  You'll increase your chances of success tenfold if you hire a lawyer.\n\nAn expunged record will still show up for the cops and the courts, but it theoretically is hidden from the public.  \n\nA pardon, on the other hand, does erase it entirely.\n\nexcon

It would be called having them Exsponged, and maybe I am misspelling not sure, and they are only removed as part of a plea deal. You will occassionaly read of how someone will get a plea deal where if they commit NO crimes for like 5 years the thing would be exsponged.  As the first person said that is up to the DA as well though. I don't think there is any limit though. Although if you seem to have a history of committing crimes right after a prior is exsponged they aren't likely to make the deal very often. As to people under 18 I haven't heard of misdemeanors being removed from their record. It is summary offenses that are usually "sealed" or sometimes exsponged from the record. Maybe 3rd degree misdemeanors or so will be as well but the more serious the crime the less likely it will be removed.

Hi Robert,\n\n    I have a criminal record also here in Ohio. Ultimately, it will depend on your offense.  If you can give a little more information, it might help.  Ultimately, if the offense is a "crime of dishonesty", then it cannot be expunged.\n\nChris

forget those idiots.  I have a felony and I can't get a job, cant vote, and finding a place to live is almost impossible.  (I have felony for smuggling in tabacco in a penial institution)  they concider tabacco a narcotic. Anyways you can file for an expungement.  Which means you can clean ur record after 3 or five years after you serve ur time, whether it is corrections or probation.

there is a chance, but you messed up pretty bad. i got a pardon for theft. and it was a pretty big pardon also, it took them awhile to decide. so you might have a chance.

It stays until you get it expunged or you are issued a pardon.  There's a misbelief that crimes drop off your record at certain times.  They don't drop off automaticly, and most will never be able to be expunged or pardoned.

Your charges are still recorded but if you were ot convicted or you pleaded to a lesser charge, that infomration should also be available.  Now you may have another option.  If it was your first offense you may be able to get it espongued.  Do a search on this for your state or call your local clerk of court to find out more info.  If they have a problem with it which they likely will, just tell them you're working on getting it espongued.  It may or may not help.\n\nGoodluck!
