Who is Eligible for Expungement in Florida?

Not all criminal records are eligible for expungement in Florida. To be eligible for expungement in Florida, an individual must meet certain criteria, which includes:

  • The individual must not have been convicted of the offense in question. This means that the case must have been dismissed, the charges were dropped, or the individual was found not guilty.
  • The offense in question must not be one of the ineligible offenses under Florida law. Ineligible offenses include but are not limited to, sexual offenses, homicide, and certain drug offenses.
  • The individual must not have any prior convictions except for minor traffic violations.
  • The individual must have completed all terms of their sentence, including probation, and paid all fines and restitution.
  • The individual must not have any pending criminal charges.
  • The individual must not have previously had their record sealed or expunged.

It's important to note that even if an individual meets these criteria, expungement is not guaranteed. The court will consider the specific circumstances of each case and may deny a petition for expungement if they determine it is not in the interests of justice to grant it.
