Question

How do i get my court files sealed

Answer 1

If you were convicted on a felony, you need to wait 5 years after your probation has been completed, for a misdemeanor, in some cases you can apply immediately after you have completed probation in other cases you need to wait two years.

   Once the proceeding conditions have been met, go see the clerk in  criminal court and file a petition for non-disclosure. Two weeks after you have filed the petition you will have you day in court. No need to hire an attorney.
