To request the expungement of an offense from your STATE (not Federal) criminal record: You must have either been acquited or served the complete term of your sentence - then file a petition/motion with 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 available to the public. Law enforcement, the courts, and government agencies will always have access to your actual 'true' record.

Felonies are life-long charges, unless you are later found not guilty, in which case it can be wiped from your record.
