Frequently Asked Questions About Eligibility for Expungement or Sealing in Dallas
Expungement is a legal process that removes criminal records, making them inaccessible to the public and law enforcement agencies, as if the offense never occurred.
Expungement completely erases criminal records, while sealing (nondisclosure) limits access to the records, making them hidden from public view but still accessible to certain government agencies.
Eligibility for expungement includes cases where charges were dismissed, the individual was acquitted, or the arrest did not result in formal charges. Individuals may also qualify after completing certain pretrial diversion programs.
Individuals convicted of certain misdemeanors or who successfully completed deferred adjudication may be eligible to seal their record through an order of nondisclosure, provided they meet specific waiting periods and other requirements.
Offenses such as murder, aggravated kidnapping, and sexual assault typically cannot be expunged or sealed in Texas. Additionally, convictions resulting in incarceration are not eligible for expungement.
The expungement process typically takes 3 to 6 months, depending on court backlogs and the complexity of the case. Sealing a record through nondisclosure may take a similar amount of time.
Expunging or sealing your record can improve employment opportunities, housing prospects, and access to education. It also protects your privacy and removes the stigma of a criminal record.
