The word "expunge" means to completely remove something from the record. An example of using expunge in sentence is "He went to jail for something he did not do, so he got the court to expunge his record."
The criminal charge of DWI can be expunged but the DMV record can NOT. DWI convictions are a permanent part of your lifelong driving history record.
if you're lucky, they'll expunge this crime from your record.
You can, it's just a bit of a difficult process which isn't too commonly used, not to my knowledge anyway
It's a very burdensome task to expunge a criminal record.
For the most part, you cannot expunge a convicted felony from your record. The DUI would just remain on top of that.
Which record? Criminal record or driving record? For CRIMINAL RECORDS: - if they occurred prior to your 18th birthday they will disappear from the public access portion of your record automatically. If you wish, you can file a request to have your record EXPUNGED, but this takes some time and effort and must be done seperately for each individual record you want sealed. For DRIVING RECORDS: they are a running cumulative total of all your driving records since you were first issued one and run for you re entire life. It is not possible to expunge driving records.
A felony will stay on your record for life. Even if you expunge your record it will still be there.
A DUI gives you two records; one criminal and one on your driver's license. Your criminal record is permanent, it will stay there forever unless you have a judge remove it from your record (expunge it). It varies from state-to-state how long the record will stay on your driving history.
You can have your record expunged, but it is rarely successful when you were convicted of the crime.
until you die :(
