Can I expunge my parole or probation record?

Yes, you may be able to expunge your parole or probation record in Florida. Expunging a record is a process by which a criminal record is sealed or removed from public view, allowing the person to deny any involvement in the offense. In order to expunge your parole or probation record in Florida, you must first meet certain criteria, such as completing all court-ordered requirements. This includes paying all fines on time, completing all required classes, and either successfully completing parole or probation or having it terminated early. Furthermore, you may not have had any prior felony convictions to be eligible. If you meet these criteria, then you may be eligible to expunge your record. You must submit an expungement application, which must be approved by the court. The court will also consider the seriousness of the offense you were convicted of and the potential for harm to the community. If your application to expunge your record is approved, you must then pay the associated fees. These fees vary depending on the type of offense and the county in which you were convicted. Depending on the type of offense, the record may be sealed or completely expunged. In Florida, if you successfully expunge your record, law enforcement agencies, courts, and other agencies may no longer be able to access the record and you can legally deny any involvement in the offense, even under oath.
