  1. Bury Your Past | Common Questions About Expungement If you have a criminal conviction in your past, the resulting criminal record probably still harms your reputation and limits access to important opportunities. Fortunately, expungement serves as a highly effective solution. Q. Can you explain what expungement means? A. Courts have the power to seal information about your criminal history. The public can't access sealed records, and you won't have to reveal them to anyone. This may help you obtain housing, employment or professional licenses. Q. What crimes can be expunged? A. The answer varies depending on several factors. Under the right circumstances, citizens can conceal records of arrests, protective orders, misdemeanors and even some felonies. The justice system rarely expunges violent crimes. Q. Who can expunge arrest records? A. Judges make this decision after reviewing the details of applicants' criminal histories. Prosecutors, probation officers, lawyers and court clerks often become involved in the process, but they don't have the power to seal legal information.
