I need something expunged from my record, how do I go about it, and how likely is it that it will happen?

Go back to the court where your case was heard and visit the Clerk and Recorder's Office. Ask them to explain to you the process to expunge your record. They will most likely have a pre-printed sheet of instructions and the necessary forms. You will have to have met all sentencing requirements.

See the following site:

Note: Even if you do expunge the record, different job and licensing requirements may still require you to indicate that you were arrested. Still, getting the charges dropped/conviction overturned/record expunged is in your best interest.

Colorado DV law is pretty screwed up. Once the system takes over there's really nothing you can do in terms of pressing charges or whatever. I'm not even sure you can get the charge off your record. Since you're still in school you should be able to get some sort of cheap/free legal council through the Uni. Look at student services and whatnot. I know that CU Boulder offers that sort of program. Don't see why other colorado schools wouldn't.

Depends on how old you were when it happened and for what you were on probation for. I would suggest a lawyer because it sounds like you have a bit of a history that might prevent it from being cleared if you are of age. Good luck. o[|||||]o

Talk to a lawyer, call around and see which one will do it for the cheapest price.
