I got 2 felonies several years ago, and they were expunged from my record. Now they are showing up when I get pulled over and when I apply for an apt. I did everything the court asked of me on time. My attorney said that there must be a loophole somewhere and my info got leaked out. Now when anyone pulls up my record, it looks like I still have these charges. My lawyer has suppose to been working on getting this resolved for about a year now and he hasnt shown me any results. Is there any group or organization that can help fix this?

In Arkansas you can APPLY for expungement under certain guidlines. You must successfully complete probation or a commitment to the Department of Correction with judicial transfer to the Department of Community Correction for certain offenses eligible for community punishment placement, and meet the following conditions:

A) was under the age of twenty-six (26) years at the time of the commission of the felony offense and had no more than one (1) previous felony conviction and that the previous felony was other than a conviction for a capital offense, or murder in the first degree, murder in the second degree, first degree rape, kidnapping, or aggravated robbery; or
B) was over the age of eighteen (18) years of age and does not have a previous conviction for the offense of delivering controlled substances to a minor, as prohibited in §5-64-701(a)(2); or
(C) has no prior felony convictions.
Ark. Code Ann. §16-93-1207.
Upon completion of the sentence or expiration of the suspension or probation period or at any time thereafter, a nonviolent felony offender may petition the convicting court to have the record of the conviction expunged. Ark. Code Ann §16-90-601, et seq.

You may not have qualified (I don't know your offenses) but your attorney should have told you whether or not in fact you did have them expunged. I personally think that he did not do what you paid him to and now he's making excuses. Call the courthouse and check.

They shouldn't be on your record if expunged correctly. You might want to check with a different lawyer. However, felonies are handled differently than misdemeanors.
