What is an Expungement?*
A more proper term is "dismissal". The conviction remains on your record for many purposes, including sex offender registration and immigration consequences. What the statute provides is, except as elsewhere stated, the defendant is 'released from all penalties and disabilities resulting from the offense'. There are numerous limitations to this relief. An adult who was granted probation, completed all the terms of probation, and is no longer on probation, is eligible for relief under this statute. He or she must not be on probation, or serving a sentence, for any other offense, anywhere. (Penal Code § 1203.4)
How is an Expungement accomplished?*
Here is a brief description on how one can apply for an “Expungement” properly referred to as a PC 1203.4 Dismissal. With a few exceptions, if you have been convicted of a Misdemeanor or a Felony in the past, and were sentenced to either formal or informal (summary) probation and now you have successfully completed all the terms and conditions of your probation (paid all fines, etc.), you qualify to petition the court for a dismissal of your case.
Why do I need an Expungement?
Having a criminal background is a serious matter. A record of an arrest or criminal history can be a tremendous barrier when applying for a job. To an employer, an arrest record could be a sign of unethical behavior or poor employee quality. California Expungement laws make the Expungement process attainable for former offenders. An Expungement is the legal process of removing a criminal conviction from one's record by changing the conviction to a dismissal. It will be very helpful in your job seeking activities as well when you are applying for housing. Don't let a past conviction continue to affect you and your loved ones.
