A Free pardon was when a convict in any of the early settlements (not just the First Fleet) was completely cleared of his or her sentence. Free pardons were based on a convict's record while they were still sentenced. The first step was a ticket of leave, which allowed convicts to work in a trade of their own choice, but to still be accountable to the Governor. A free pardon was awarded after a convict had shown himself or herself to be trustworthy and reliable. There was no special time frame under which it could be given.
