To request the expungement of an offense from your STATE (not Federal) criminal record: You must have either been exonerated, 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.

Only after an acquittal or dismissal.

No cases can be expunged after a conviction. If you successfully complete deferred adjudication, you can get a non-disclosure, but still not an expunction.

You can only be expunged in Texas if it is for a Class C misdemeanor. You can also be expunged if you have already received a pardon.
