General Information:
- An expungement does NOT release an individual from their registration requirements, but we are hoping that will change.
- Can only have ONE juvenile adjudication and NO felony convictions on your record.
- Cannot have a 1st degree CSC expunged.
- You may not apply until you have become at least 24 years of age and either:
- 5 years have passed since imposition of the disposition for the adjudication if you were not detained as a result of the adjudication, or
- 5 years have passed since release from a term of detention if you were detained as a result of the adjudication.
· If the expungement is denied it looks as though you can go back at a later time and try again. There is no time limit imposed
· To look up a specific MCL (Michigan Compiled Law) number go to the Michigan Legislature website.
