How does the court decide whether or not to grant me an expungement?
The court will perform a test to weigh your interest in clearing your name against the governments need to allow public access to your records. The court will review the probation report to see how you have behaved since the conviction. If the report shows that your crime was an isolated incident and that you have since shown a desire to get on with your life in a positive way, then the court will probably grant the expungement.
