To request an expungement: You must first have served the complete term of your sentence - then submit a petition to the court setting forth good 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 viewed by the public. Law enforcement, the courts, and government agencies will always have access to your complete 'actual' record.

∙ 15y agoIt is not an automatic occurrence. You must file a petiton with the court requesting the offense be expunged and giving good reason(s) why it should be granted. A judge will review your request and issue a ruling. If granted, the expungement is not a pardon and although the record will no longer be available to the general public it will still exist and be available to law enforcment and the courts.

How long do police have to charge you after a home raid in Maryland?
Maryland has no statute of limitations for misdemeanors punishable by imprisonment. That means they can use the evidence collected whenever they feel like it is time to do so. They do have limitations on certain felonies and misdemeanors; some are 1, 2 or 3 years, depending on the chargeable offense. If your home was raided with a warrant, or under terms where no warrant is required (probation check, hot pursuit, imminent danger, etc.) then you really should be talking to a lawyer. Seriously.
