Can I Get This Case Off My Record?

Sealing & Expunging Arrest Information

Sealing a criminal record involves making a person’s criminal history inaccessible to the general public. However, city, county, state and federal government and agencies, including the police and military, will have access to and be able to review your criminal history records whether or not those records are sealed. Expunging a record involves the court ordered physical destruction or obliteration of a criminal history record or a portion of that record. It is very difficult to qualify to have a record sealed or expunged. To download the information on sealing and expunging criminal history records in Florida, click here.
