How To Seal Your Criminal Record: A Former Prosecutor Tells You How!
What is a Non-Disclosure?
A non-disclosure is when you are trying to seal your criminal record as a result of successful completion of deferred adjudication for an eligible offense. The most common crimes that are not eligible for a non-disclosure are the following: Capital Murder, Murder, Sexual Offenses, Aggravated Kidnapping, Injury to Child/Elderly, Violation of Protective Order, and Assault-Family Violence. In addition, there are certain misdemeanors that require a two year waiting period from your date of discharge. There is a five year waiting period for felonies.
Sealing Your Record in Fort Worth
________________________________________
If you do qualify for a non-disclosure you need a Criminal attorney in Fort Worth such as me to file a petition of non-disclosure. If the Judge signs the order, the clerk must send a copy of the order to the Crime Records Service of the Department of Public Safety within 15 business days. The Texas Department of Public Safety must seal any criminal history information within 10 days of receiving the order and send the order or information to state officials and entities. The State Officials and Entities must seal any criminal history record information within 30 business days of receiving the order from the court clerk. Texas Government Code §411.081 explains in detail the right to a non-disclosure.
