Expungement
Expungement, seal, and pardon (clemency):
Expungement is often equated
to the sealing or destroying of legal records. Each state offers its own
definition of expungement, based on different rules and laws. Generally,
expungement can be viewed as the process to "remove from general review"
the records pertaining to a case. But the records may not completely
"disappear" and may still be available to law enforcement.
Generally, all records on
file within any court, detention or correctional facility, law
enforcement or criminal justice agency concerning a person's detection,
apprehension, arrest, detention, trial or disposition of an offense
within the criminal justice system can be expunged. Each state sets its
own guidelines for what records can be expunged.
