Best Answer

Probably yes. You will need to be proactive in getting most felonies (if possible in the first place) off of your record. To do this, you will ask the court to expunge or record seal your conviction. Eligibility for record sealing varies from state to state, but generally the procedure is a follows:

* Apply for record sealing in writing with the Court

* The original sentence must have been served

* The person is not facing any new charges

* The burden is on the applicant to prove that probation requirements have been fulfilled

ADDED: Yes, it will. Unless the offense occurred prior to your 18th birthday all crimes committed as an adult remain a permanent part of your criminal history record. REGARDING EXPUNGEMENT: Most(all?) states do NOT issue 'blanket" expunctions. Usually only ONE offense per lifetime may be expunged.

You can apply for expungement, and if you meet the qualifications the court MAY remove it from your record. Contact an attorney - it is NOT a do-it-yourself project.

How long does a felony charge stay on your record in the state of Texas and how can it be removed from your record?

It won't be removed, it's there forever. If it occurred when you were a kid, the record could be sealed. But if it's after you are an adult it will follow you around forever. Unless expunged subsequent to acquittal, conviction reversed by the Court of Criminal Appeals, or a Governor's pardon, adult criminal records remain forever. (see Code of Criminal Procedure Article 55.01 Right to Expunction) The public only has access to criminal records for seven years but law enforcement have access forever.


Is'nt it true that after seven year off parole your reacord is clean?

No. You are confusing the bankrupcy law with criminal law. After seven years your credit record is considered clean if you haven't defaulted on any other loans and you can only declare bankrupcy every seven years. A criminal record as an adult stays with you but the longer you stay clean the better jobs and such. So, if asked, you do still have a record after seven years.
