Yes and no. If by "cleared" you are asking if they 'disappear' forever, no they don't.

ALSO, there is no such thing as a blanket expungement of your entire record. Generally, you will only be granted one expungement of one case per lifetime.

IF your expungment is granted, that case is sealed so that the general public cannot have access to it - it will be as if it did not exist as far as the public is concerned. HOWEVER, the record never truly goes away - the courts, law enforcement, government agencies and organizations doing background checks for government level security clearances will always have access to it.
