The best avenue is to go to the office of the clerk of the criminal court where the case was brought, give them the case number and ask what information you can obtain. Many clerks' offices now have computer systems in their offices that are available to the public to investigate cases using case numbers or a person's name.

How can you expunge your record?
Every state has laws regarding expunction of records. Generally a record is expunged if the charges are dismissed. If a person has been convicted of a crime he cannot have the case expunged, but perhaps sealed (meaning that the public cannot see the case and the Defendant can legally deny the existence of the case) if the person was not adjudicated guilty (meaning officially declared guilty as opposed to a judge withholding adjudication of the case).

How do you get a charge expunged?
Expungement procedures and requirements vary from state to state and you will have to look at your state statutes for the particular procedures to follow in your state, or to even know if you are eligible to have the dismissed charges expunged. In Florida, for example, there are certain arrests that cannot be expunged, even though the charges were ultimately dismissed. When your record is expunged, it is physically destroyed, and the public will no longer have access to it. Although in many states, one copy is retained by the state's central law enforcement agency and there are situations in which you would still have to reveal you've had a record expunged.
Can a criminal background that has been removed or expunged still be viewed by potential employers licensing committees or landlords in Texas?
Expungement of a case means that: expungement, meaning deletion or purging from the files. So no one should be able to see it, not even law enforcement. Law enforcement can, however, see that you have had a case expunged for the purposes of determining eligibility of a case for expunction. Generally you can only have one case expunged in your life, and only if you were not adjudicated guilty of that crime.

How is felony conviction expunged?
You have to bring your case to the courts. If the judge rules that you are not guilty for the charges that were brought against you, AND the judge rules that the charges be expunged - then you can then go through the process of notifying all the various agencies of the court order. The courts do not do this on their own. Those who charged you would get a notice but that does not mean that they will do anything about it. You have to start with the party that charged you and work your way up through the local, county, and state police. Then on to the FBI. All of which may require you to go before the courts again to force them to remove the information from all their various databases. You may also have to clear it with the credit reporting agencies as well, if it is listed (sometimes they do that).To have a felony conviction expunged just because you want it gone from the records is not going to happen. Only a reversal of the charges, or a pardon by the Governor or the President can do that.
