What is Expungement in Florida?

Expungement is the legal process of sealing or erasing a criminal record, making it inaccessible to the public, including employers and landlords. In Florida, expungement is different from record sealing. While both processes limit access to your criminal record, expunged records are physically destroyed, making them even less accessible.

Eligibility for Expungement in Florida

Not all criminal records are eligible for expungement in Florida. To be eligible, you must meet certain criteria:

  • You were not convicted of the crime. Typically, only cases where charges were dismissed, you were acquitted, or you completed a pretrial diversion program are eligible.
  • You have not been convicted of any other crime.
  • The offense in question is not on the list of disqualifying offenses, such as certain serious felonies.

Benefits of Expungement

  • Improved Employment Opportunities: With an expunged record, potential employers will not see the criminal charge, improving your chances of getting hired.
  • Housing Opportunities: Expungement can help you secure housing, as landlords often conduct background checks.
  • Peace of Mind: Clearing your record can provide peace of mind and a fresh start, allowing you to move forward without the burden of a criminal past.
