It may depend on HOW it was dismissed. WITH prejudice or WITHOUT prejudice? Once you answer that question you can refer to the folloing general guidelines; To request the expungement of an offense from your STATE (not Federal) criminal record: You must have either been exonerated, acquited, or served the complete term of your sentence - then file a petition/motion with the court setting forth valid reason(s) why your request should be granted. A judge will review your petition and the circumstances of your case and issue a ruling either granting or denying the request. AN EXPUNGEMENT IS NOT A PARDON! Expungement only removes the record of your offense from being available to the public. Law enforcement, the courts, and government agencies will always have access to your actual 'true' record.

If you were arrested, it will show. If you were arrested multiple times, it will show each time you were arrested and what you were arrested for but if you were acquitted of the charges then it will state that in the records.Clarification: Just because a charge was "dismissed" or "Nolle Prossed" does not mean it is automatically expuinged from your record. The record of your arrest will still exist as well as the record of the court action (i.e.: dismissed or nolle'd).You must file a formal request for expungment to have these records concealed,
