What is an Expunction?
Upon the petition of a criminal defendant, a court can
direct certain law enforcement agencies to destroy all records associated
with an arrest and subsequent prosecution. Many times the court
will specifically direct law enforcement agencies to destroy jail
records, police reports, prosecution reports and court files. In
addition, a successful expungement petitioner, can legally deny
ever having been arrested for or charged with the criminal offense
for which he is receiving the expunction. Background checks by employers
come back clean.

What is a Petition for Nondisclosure
(Record Seal)?
Upon the petition of a criminal defendant, a court can
direct certain law enforcement agencies to refrain from disclosing
to any third party any criminal records associated with an arrest,
prosecution and deferred probation. A successful petitioner can
legally deny the existence of his arrest, charge and deferred
probation. The order requires that any third party who buys criminal
history information from Texas remove that information from their
databases. If these third party vendors do not do so in accordance
with the court’s order, they would be subject to civil
penalties. Therefore, web site such as PublicData.com would be
required by law to remove criminal history information subject
to the court’s nondisclosure order or face civil penalties.
