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.
