depends on the law in your state. in my state, you may not petition the court until after 5 years of the date of conviction. and you are only eligible if it is the only conviction on your criminal history report. if you have ever been convicted of more than one crime, and it is on your state criminal history report, you probably will not be eligible. but the good news is that if you stay straight and narrow for the 5 years, most judges are pretty leniet to set aside the conviction (if it is an eligible conviction to set aside...of course you can't set aside a rape or murder!)

but again, i say...u have to look to the law of your state. it may be different requirements. i suggest looking at a website like www.findlaw.com. it's very useful for most topics, and distinguishes by state. good luck.

That depends upon the state and the type of conviction. In many states, a felony is forever; it's never expunged. Many states do have procedures for expungement of some misdemeanors.

You need to consult with a local attorney for advice specific to your situation, and to get the ball rolling if you are possibly eligible for expungement.

Speak with a licensed attorney that specializes in criminal law. That should get you more than speculative replies but more concrete answers from an experienced and knowledgeable person that can also help you do what you wish to do. BELIEVE me there's a reason why they're working in the field! They KNOW what they're doing. Don't rely on hearsay and opinions and rumors... !

It usually takes a lawyer. I have done some of my own civil law stuff but this looks pretty complicated. Also I do not think you can do it if found guilty or unless the reason given for not gone to court is not that of not having enough evidence. Perhaps different in different states. Pardon my English

I believe when you turn eighteen your record is expunged.

Your question is state specific. It depends upon the rules & statutes of your state as well as whether or not you were convicted & if so, of what.
