Criminal records are not 'erased' they are 'expunged.' To request an expungement: You must present a petition to 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. EXPUNGEMENT IS NOT A PARDON! Expungement only removes the record of your offense from being viewed by the public. Law enforcement and the courts will always have access to your complete 'actual' record. For legal purposes, your status will still remain that of a 'convicted felon' and you remain subject to any restrictions that status places upon you (gun possession - voting rights - etc).
