Yes you can if the state you live in offers Expungements. Nolle prossed cases just mean that the prosecutor did not pursue the case for whatever reason therefore the charges would be dropped against you.Normally they can bring the charge back if new information comes to light within a year.After that you should be ok. Nolle prose is a Non Conviction term used in courts! As long as you have NO convictions on your record-you should be able to file for an Expungement!!
