How long does a felony charge stay on your record in the state of Connecticut?

Answer 1

When it relates to an adult criminal convictions including misdemeanors remain a permanent part of an individual's record. It is possible in some cases to have a misdemeanor removed for purposes of the convicted person becoming gainfully employed. This does not mean that the entry is permanently erased, only that its accessiblility is limited. The removal of the entry would depend upon the severity of the crime, the time that has expired since the commission, whether or not the convicted person has other criminal convictions and/or a history of problems with authorities.

Answer 2

I am not aware of any state that that removes the fact that a person has a felony on their record. If it is there I believe that it will remain there for the rest of your life. Only juveniles have the ability to request a court seal their record. Once it is there it is there forever. Remember, You cant' change history, it is what it is. But you can change your future by your own actions.

Answer 3

Unless the offense occurred prior to your 18th birthday, criminal records are a permanent party of your history. They are not like drivers license points and 'go away' after a certain length of time.

Answer 4

A misdemeanor or any crime will stay on your record indefinitely unless it is removed. You can usually have a misdemeanor expunged.
