Georgetown Orders of Non-Disclosure Attorney

Those who wish to clear their criminal records who are not eligible for an expunction may be eligible for an order of non-disclosure.

This will prohibit the disclosure of the record associated with your arrest, prosecution, and deferred sentence by law enforcement agencies as a public record. Only government agencies will be allowed to access any information regarding your record.

Orders of Non-Disclosure

In order to be eligible for an order of non-disclosure, you may be subject to a waiting period based on the type of offense involved. You also cannot have been convicted of other criminal offenses during the waiting period. Five-year waiting periods from the date of the dismissal apply for those who received a Deferred Adjudication for misdemeanors involving weapons charges, domestic violence, assault charges, sexual offenses, and others. In the case of felonies, there is generally a ten-year waiting period before one can apply for an order of non-disclosure. Certain felony offenses are completely ineligible for orders of non-disclosure, such as murder, child abandonment or endangerment, and more.

To find out if you are eligible to have your criminal record sealed, you should consult with me as a Georgetown orders of non-disclosure attorney at your earliest opportunity.
