In California, the courts provide the paperwork. You have to complete the 'pleading' paper yourself. DO NOT do this in a hurry, make it legible and proof read it. It is very easy to do if you have completed all the requirements of probation and you have a 'quiet' record other than the felony. You will complete the paperwork, and send it to the Court Clerk who will route it to the District Attorney and the Judge. The D.A. will not Object to your request for an expungment if your probabation record is complete and clean. But you MUST complete all probation requirements first. If the D.A. does not object, the Judge will set the matter for a Calendar. You will show up ( do not wear your hip hop clothes, a hat, and turn off your cell phone ). The Judge may or may not ask two or three questions. Most often, a clerk will give you a pre-approved expungement order signed by the Judge. Like I said, it is easy to do ( the other posters above don't know what they are talkng about ), and you do not need an attorney/counselor.

You probably can't.
Expungement is designed to avoid a record when a charge was dismissed or the conviction was overturned because of an error AND you were blameless. If you were legitimately convicted, what reason would there be to expunge the record?

You probably can't.
And you'll get into less trouble if you hire counsel. Trying to pay off council could result in another felony conviction.

you are able to no longer be waiting to. I had a pal with a misdemeanor marijuana conviction and he or she had it expunged yet a individual wouldn't have positioned themselves able to get a criminal conviction interior the 1st place. Face the outcomes.

You have to go in front of the Judge and it's gonna cost you alot of money, plus, you also have to have been out of trouble for at least ten years before they will even consider it.

You can't, it takes a good lawyer and a pile of cash.
