They essentially mean the same thing. To request an expungement of a STATE criminal record: You must have either been acquited or served the complete term of your sentence - then submit 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. AN EXPUNGEMENT IS NOT A PARDON! Law enforcement, the courts, and government agencies will always have access to your actual 'true' record. Expungement only removes the record of your offense from being viewed by the public. Although basically the same felony crimes are somewhat more problematic.

You will need to go back to court and ask that your prior criminal records be "sealed". That does not mean that they do not exist, but generally speaking it means they are not available for public view. Usually expungement is in consideration of a first time offense. That does not mean they completely disappear. They will always be available to law enforcement and the legal system. Granting an expungement gives you a "second change" in life to gain employment, etc. and not have your past held against you. This is basically a one shot deal. Any future criminal activity, and those sealed records are opened.

For example, juvenile records must be sealed and destroyed upon the court granting the petition, adoption records must sealed by statute as well. Darren Chaker
